I said to this lady as my wife and I were on our evening walk. "What year was your house built?" My wife wanted to curl up and die as I asked a random neighbor a random question. Lisa, as it turns out, tells me it was built in 1928....JACKPOT!!! Small talk for 5 minutes, Ok to hit it this Sunday afternoon. Walking away, wifey says "you're ridiculous"... Yes, .... yes I am:laughing7:

I have found that most people are proud of their old homes & are more than willing to give you the history. Some folks have even taken me in to show off the details. One place the gentleman showed me the cellar. It had rock walls to a certain point then bricks. & a dirt floor. In the wall was part of a chain for holding slaves. He said he sold the manacles. I would have left them as they were another part of that homes history gone forever.

Not at all, wants nothing to do with it, which kinda stings, but she doesn't mind my enthusiasm...the best part is she is handy w/ the lawn mower, and was eager to learn about the weed wacker, now that she has her own safety goggles, I don't mind her new hobby, I win:laughing7:
