You won't get any closer to owning your own vintage time machine than this!
Built in 1901, this timewarp of a house is located in Elgin, Illinois. It's been well maintained but not "updated", so it still has all of its original features - Scrollwork and built-in radiator seats...
Zachary - The newel light is built in as part of the house. It was originally a gas fixture that was converted to electricity. If memory serves, our place was either the first or second home in the area to have electric light...
Hello, kids! Most probably none of you remember me, but I'm back, anyway. :D
So, here's a virtual tour of my home out in Elgin, Illinois. It was built in 1901 and still has all the original keys for the doors, as well as the built-in liquor cabinet, laundry chute, cabinets, coal room, woodshed...
Man, I'd love to, myself! Sadly for me, this is the most time I've ever had to devote to the 'net, so who knows how things will roll in the future. Plus I love the face-to-face aspect of gaming. The vibe in the room is what makes a game of CofC!

Ladies and Gents,
O f'r'eavensake! How many people were seriously upset by this gal or this thread? I read a number of posts that were pretty "blunt" or even downright rude, but I assume that a number of the posts on Ms. Snow's blog were from other folks besides Loungers. Were all of those...
WELL DONE!
Be-hatted Ones,
Looks like you boys carried the day. This little girl has taken down most of the later posts you submitted (leaving her "witty" retorts up, of course), and has closed the thread to comment. Her reasoning?
"You've only seen 1/2, the rest were unpublishable... I...
