The House

Italianate Architecture

This is the house at 6244 Fauquier Drive, across Skinker Boulevard from Forest Park. This is where I live with my wife, Peggy.

Our house was built on the ground used during the 1904 World's Fair's agriculture exhibits. The ground was owned and plotted by Thomas Skinker. He began selling the lots in our subdivision, the Ellenwood Neighborhood, in 1921. Our house was the second of about 68 houses built in this old subdivision.

A Final Goodbye

Anyway, I'm just typing away to check the page layout capabilities of my blog. Good bye for now.
