Day 436

YAY! I want to thank Judy so much. After talking to us last week she went home and made copies of some of pictures of our house when she lived here back in the 50's. Looking at these pictures was so exciting to me. We actually got to see what our front porch looked like. We also got to see the stairway in the front room. It amazingly looks very much like it did then. Only the wallpaper and the lack of woodwork around the archway (this archway has been walled up). Then she also had pictures of the house after her mother had put on the green shingle/siding and the fire escape stairs. I call the green stuff yucky (now) but back in 1950 something it looked pretty darn good. I guess after 60 years most anything would look yucky

Here is a picture of my beautiful house when Judy's family purchased it. I love all of the details on the porch... and look at the corbels. :D This is another thing that we knew should be there and wondered what they had looked like.
