      Great pic! The blue trash can gives it a modern look. lol J/K I'd move the can and retake the pic. It really throws the whole 1820's look out the window. Either way, I love the place. Thanks for giving me a tour when I was visiting your shop.
      I will be back!

      A very beautiful old home that reeks terminology such as sturdy & dependable. My current home is brick also (but much much younger, having been built in 1974) and it gives one comfort to know that when it comes to weather & shelter. Hurricanes for me & possibly tornado's for you.
      Sorry for not calling last night but my day and early eve became much more hectic than I first thought. And once I was freed up, I thought it too late to call. But we can always set another time to chat.
      Once again I know from first hand experience the joys (and the drawbacks) from living in and the remodeling of very old structures. I have done major restoration work on homes close to as old as yours pictured here. While my former home was just a little over half as old as your home pictured, there were always a pile of folks that wanted to hear the whole story, and take the $25 cent tour. (mine was built in 1897)
      Once again. A very nice home and definitely one to be proud of. Thanks for sharing it.

      Actually I was born and raised in Jacksonville Fl. Lived 4 years in Daytona Beach where I went to my last 2 years of high school and 1st 2 years of college. Also spent 2 years in SC during 2nd & 3rd grade. Spent every winter in the islands for 17 years and mostly out-islands Bahamas, Puerto Rico, Virgin Islands, Costa Rica, Mexico etc etc... Stayed as long as 9 months there but most visits were 3-7 weeks And yes I'm use to the high humidity of the tropics. Can't stand anywhere cold... But have flown to Chicago many times to catch Cub games. Big Cub fan...
