Aah, I love that house! I wish I could just spend a few days there, daydreaming about all the things that happened within those walls in days gone by. That second one is cool looking too, and clearly also very old. I'm sure imaginary friends would have a hay day running through there as well.

My specialty however is mining towns in the west.
Very nice! My specialties are medieval Europe, and the whole Victorian and Edwardian eras (aprox 1840-1912) and WWI era, or the "teens". I love the clothing of those times and learning what every day life was like for every day type of people. I do have an interest for all eras to some extent, but must admit my attention wanes when approaching WWII times. My dad overexposed me to that era while growing up. But yeah, I love history, and enjoy learning new things about it, I find it fascinating.
