Beginning in late March of each year during which they owned
the Clark Hill property, Mr. Moore would spend a couple of
weekends there getting it ready for the summer months. Then,
beginning in mid to late April, petitioners’ family would visit
the property two and, sometimes, three weekends a month until
Labor Day, when Mr. Moore closed the property for the winter.
Between Labor Day and the following March, Mr. Moore would
occasionally visit the property to rake leaves and perform other
caretaker functions.
The mobile home located on the property was a double-wide
mobile home. During their tenure, petitioners built a deck
around it, built a screened-in porch on top of a portion of the
deck, and installed a satellite television receiver, a new
television, and a VHS recorder. They also replaced the roof and
repainted the home two or three times. They installed a new
washer and dryer and replaced some of the furniture (bedroom
seats and beds) that had come with the home. They kept a pontoon
boat on Clark Hill Lake and improved the dock they had in the
lake to conform to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers electrical
requirements. During their summer stays at the Clark Hill
property, petitioners and their children used the property for
various recreational purposes, including relaxing on the dock,
boating, and fishing.
