This old house

As we have traveled around, we've seen so many interesting old houses. It amazes me to know that these old houses have withstood the test of time and the elements.

Some have aged very gracefully..........

Some regally.......

Some are showing their age......

But others are being mended and cared for.........

Kind of makes you wonder if they will be around for another hundred years.

Gorgeous old houses. When they are refurbished I bet there are a lot of things that need to be done to make them meet our current utility standards. The trick is to do it without losing the historic charm. Our Townsite section has historic status, but the homes are mostly Craftsman style from our 1900 mill town era. Still, they are important to preserve. - Margy

Beautiful houses! If those walls could talk, I’m sure they’ve seen some amazing history!

I love old homes. Hope they will be around for another 100 years, and longer!

Das sind wunderbare Zeitzeugen und sollten auf jeden Fall für die Nachwelt erhalten bleiben.

Old houses have so much character.
Wouldn’t it be fun to take a peek inside.

Those old places were built by craftsmen and built to last. Your American old hoses are just beautiful.
