How Cool is This!

This home, my home, has recently been included on the roster for the Spring House Tour of the Wilmette Historical Society.

The Society just passed along this image of my home from a real estate listing dated 1905.

How beautiful the house looked then in all of it’s grandeur.  How much it has changed since then!  Who was responsible for those changes…and why?

The feeling of merely being the curator of a piece of history is daunting.  What would the family that built this home think about it now?  I know that we have never been happier.  We hope that that would make them proud. 🙂

Looking forward to showing it to the historically interested on May 17.
