Ha, thanks!
Envy the tower all you'd like... just don't envy putting the tower storm windows in. It was death defying!!

Re: My Queen Anne
But if you could afford a house like this when it was built you certainly could afford to hire a handyman to install the windows each season.
You have a beautiful house.

Thank you sir!
And good point! They were quite a wealthy family. They owned a very large woolen mill operation that supplied blankets to the union troops during the civil war, and they made wool skirts that were "in" at some point. According to the written history a previous owner gave me, they had chauffeurs, maids, gardeners, etc.
I thought they were wealthy because the house actually has closets in every bedroom.

Re: My Queen Anne
I have always loved your place...but I guess I never noticed how creative you had to get when painting. Lots of interesting angles & curves where the ceilings meet the walls. Love it!!

Re: My Queen Anne
I can see why you would like to show off your "new" old home. It is beautiful! Considering the beautiful exterior, the interior is certainly just as lovely.
