Our little house is an old Whitefish house - right in town. We're lucky to have had it painted and recarpeted (with the cheapest carpet it's ever been my pleasure to run my gnarly toes over - they keep snagging it!) before we moved in. Plus, it has oak floors in living, dining and office rooms. I think the office was used as a bedroom previously, but since it's downstairs in basically the middle of things, and you have to walk through it to the bathroom, we decided to put our computer desks and bookcases in there. The upstairs is a glorified attic. They enlarged the windows on the gable ends to make the rooms lighter and more livable. We have one bedroom, and the other is for the college student when she comes home to visit (it's crammed with boxes now). There's also a full basement with the laundry. Reminds me of Bruce and Maggie's house!
Two sisters, Nancy and Mary, exchange family news and photos and dream about knitting, quilting, books, birds and life in general.

Did you know that when Dad reads something to Mom and he comes to an explanation mark he says "bang"?
