dining area with two exterior


As you tour the rooms in my saltbox, wander around the grounds and visit the outbuildings, please take a moment to notice the exterior of the house. Although the dark color of the clapboard siding may appear morbid to some, to me, it is reminiscent of seventeenth-century New England architecture. On the stoop, next to the pumpkin, you will find 25 stories to read either inside or outdoors.
