The Historic District

Hi Jo! Thanks for looking at my photos. I think you're right about keeping the living room windows.. one old original room is probably good to have. I know I'm going to be recreating the storms (I have maybe half of the entire house) so I'll just refinish these when I do that. Ugh...popcorn ceiling;...

One Saturday I saw a Stickley rocker on Craigslist Lincoln.
