Nice sturdy banisters, super thick walls, narrow windows, wood everything inside. I especially love the historical photos posted along the walls... *sigh*<br /><br /><a href="http://elizabethmueller.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">♥.•*¨Elizabeth¨*•.♥</a><br>Elizabeth Muellerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06028099814857743134noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8914384080646206545.post-81545458662167652262014-06-23T23:44:41.475-06:002014-06-23T23:44:41.475-06:00You know, I ought to have an answer for this, but,...You know, I ought to have an answer for this, but, right now, I just don't.

It was my favorite place to be as a child. I loooove history. I hate text book "and this happened on this date at this time by this person with help from that other guy". But I love learning the stories and seeing how things used to be. I would love to even go into an Amish community for a couple days just to see how they live. To me, I don't find "oh there's a ghost here" interesting. I find, "yeah there was a farmer who owned this entire area with his family for decades, he's still seen here sometimes" interesting. (My grandparents' house. I'll tell you about it sometime, if you want.) Now I feel like I should go exploring but everything here is new and it's too hot outside haha.Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07507642753163503531noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8914384080646206545.post-27230773390418099912014-06-23T14:28:59.866-06:002014-06-23T14:28:59.866-06:00I love old schools, courthouses, libraries, etc. I...I love old schools, courthouses, libraries, etc. I know.

The school bought up a ton of old brownstones and other historic old buildings in the Back Bay part of the city so there were a lot of beautiful fireplaces, marble, woodwork, etc. in all the buildings.JoJohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18165375435543044068noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8914384080646206545.post-33477751712000528002014-06-23T11:22:06.753-06:002014-06-23T11:22:06.753-06:00Hi Tina - what a conglomerate of a mix you are .. ...Hi Tina - what a conglomerate of a mix you are .. did you do geology too?! Interesting you were looking at architecture and design then too .. and not just rushing along with the other kids ... <br /><br />I know I see buildings now - but 'never' in those days .. as I've got older, and older, and more decrepit!! and wizened I see the same in those ancient buildings .. except I'm not quite as prehistoric as that!! quite yet!!<br /><br />Anyway .. fascinating and yes I want to see what the building was originally ... <br /><br />Sadly it's my feet that get worn away .. but I did clamber up really crooked wooden stairs probably pre-Dickens era and they were really worn .. <br /><br />I do enjoy seeing how people alter buildings into homesteads and use natural products or green up their new homes ... <br /><br />Lovely story ... cheers Hilary<br /><br />PS Did you get my posts email ..?Hilary Melton-Butcherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17596532480645510678noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8914384080646206545.post-68815852440005193502014-06-23T10:31:06.408-06:002014-06-23T10:31:06.408-06:00Have you ever gone back to see if an elevator was ...Have you ever gone back to see if an elevator was installed?Alex J.
