Carol Perkins: Down Home Going "Down Home" is different now. My grandparents are gone, and the place is quiet. There are no more crops to harvest, playhouses to design, kids to bang screen doors, or dogs to chase cars up the hill. When I do drive down the hill and the pond opens up in my view, I marvel at the farm I once took for granted. - CAROL PERKINS. Next earlier Carol Perkins column: Carol Perkins. Old School Cafe a reality in Metcalfe Co., KY By Carol Perkins Down Home. When I was a young girl, my mother would say, "I'm going down home for awhile." That meant for my brother and me to get in the car. "Down Home" was the location of her family farm located only a half mile from our house. "Down home" and "down the hill" were destinations. When my cousins Roberta and I ended up "down home" at the same time, we veered to the wood yard where we made chairs from sticks of wood that had not yet been ricked, looking for shapes suitable for couches and chairs. Planks became tables for dining, and if we could find old dishes in our grandmother's cupboard, we borrowed them for the day.
