Southwest corner of the house which
fronts west, or to be more accurate a
little more northwest than due
west. Grapevine hides the south end
of front porch. Windows in the gable
end in the second story belong to Mother’s
room. She spends her time by the one you
see the most of. In the highest story
the window best seen in the gable end
belongs to my room. The dormer window
were put in the roof last October.
The dining room is on the ground
floor of this southwest corner. A little
fenced-in flower garden is in the
foreground.
