               While in Wisconsin, I got to spend a little time re-connecting with some family history:

identifying the family tree file



I also got to see the house my grandma and grandpa lived in for as long as I could remember.

It has been refurbished and is a beautiful example of so many victorian homes in this area
made with the yellow brick from the local factory.

the white house on the right, now a separate residence, was originally the carriage house

 the vintage fence was found in the basement by the new owners and re-installed
