Renovations sometimes bring surprises...

this time a pleasant one, as our craftsmen find an old letter inside a wall of Alice's Cottage...a love letter written in April of 1928. It reminds us of a song:

If these old walls
If these old walls could speak
Of things that they remembered well
Stories and faces dearly held...

If these old fashioned window panes were eyes
I guess they would have seen it all
Each little tear and sigh and footfall
And every dream that we came to seek
Or followed after
If these walls could speak

                                               ~Jimmy Webb

 

The Cottage renovation hasn't stopped our online orders or special classes...
