Hmmm ... I wonder if I have time on Saturday to make it up to Alexandria for the tour? Maybe if I leave early, so I'm back by mid-afternoon. Thanks for the heads up!
Oh, how I wish I lived closer. I would love to spend the day touring these gorgeous homes!
I am so jealous! I always wonder what is behind the doors....of almost everything.
Oh Michele I really want to be there; these doorways to delight!
