I passed by on a random Saturday afternoon. My wife and I met the grounds keeper and was offered a tour inside the home. Amazing history. We walked the wooden floors and I even touched the square nails hammered into the floor. To think of the history and the passion within those walls gave me chills. Truly amazing!
