Bluebells, bleeding hearts, violets, tulips, lilacs, and sweet rocket are all in bloom. And they return each year, bigger and better each year



Fire In The Kitchen!

Luckily it is only red stained-glass flames above the
stainless steel Viking Oven. The 16 window panes look out to a vegetation covered hill to the east. There is covered, ceramic tiled porch beyond the windows with a stairway leading to the basement garage and steps leading to the front yard. The metal cabinets in the kitchen are St. Charles (hoity-toity stuff in the 50's)that are painted with an industrial paint called Hammerite and then rubbed to give it a slight texture.
