 The queenly stance of this old house shows the quality of her bones, and there's something about her that calls for a second glance. The simplicity of her lines, the patina of rust streaked on her roof, the beauty of the weathered boards that surround her. You wonder: who lived there in times past? Was their life filled with joy, or with hard times and pain? Do sounds of laughter, mixed with cries of pain, still echo behind those boarded windows?
