I know life was hard in those days, but I wonder if some disease swept through the town during that time. I agree that the cemetery lacked a feeling, but there are some very old souls buried there. The oldest I noticed was born in 1830. It's so steep, it was difficult to read some of the headstones.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15228874125939756511noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7467888874873928043.post-88447796464951075512018-07-30T13:45:13.469-06:002018-07-30T13:45:13.469-06:00Loves the pictures.

I think how long the smell lasts depends on what kind of fur the dog has. I had to scrub down my door frame, door, and cabinet because the dogs rubbed the spray on those things as they came barreling into the house.

Two years after we moved the house was torn down to make room for a parking lot for the football field across the street. <br />My best friend lived there with her Grandmother, who fixed up and refurbished these old places for resale. <br /><br />To get even, when ny husband and I moved in here, we moved into a 200 year old farmhouse and have spent the last 45 years putting it back together. What comes after us, I never want to know. =) So there are some of us who do tend to be purists, even now. And I agree, painting old pine moldings and fire surrounds and wainscoting ANY color is right up there as a hanging offense.
