The Brown House

11/27/2011

I went back to Louisiana for Thanksgiving and snapped a few photos of the Brown House. I guess it probably was painted brown at some point, but that was a long, long time ago.

This is the back of the Brown House. The house is mostly used for storage now, a sort of family dumping ground for old furniture and back issues of National Geographic.

Light at the front of the house and some remnants of brown paint.

The electric meter. I'm not sure when this was last connected to power.

The front of the house, home to spiders galore.

Great Photos, Rhonda...if only the walls could talk they would have great stories to tell. Where is this? do you know who lived there years ago?

This is the old house between mom's house and my grandparents' house. I know someone in the family lived there, maybe Aunt Hilda?
