Who Lived Here????

Wouldn't you love to know....

What kids played here....

What couple grew old here.....

How the interior was decorated back when....

Who lived here....

Who grew up here.....

Who loved here....

How many times were these trees climbed....

Whose memories does this old house hold...

How many families lived here in the life of this place.....

How could it come to this?????

I am not sure why I am drawn to old beautiful abandoned houses.  My mind races with wonders of the families that lived there.  How proud they must have been when they first moved in, the dinners that were cooked in the kitchen, the hours of play that happened in the yard.  I always wonder how these homes get in such ill repair and end up abandoned.  If I had an ounce of handyman in me, I would surely live in one of these stately places.  Such beautiful old homes that hold so many memories.  All these wonderful pictures came from Pinterest by the way!
