Up and Coming

(off that is)

 

These old tin roofs are usually the last to go on these old houses. It looks like a wind storm got the corner of this one.

This style of house is very typical here in the Northern Neck of Virginia, with the roof soffit extending into the center triangle. Also, the blinds and curtains were so popular in the day and they never seem to wear out. People seem to love the style and keep them up as long as there is a thread left.

I noticed that the owners put a little money into hiring a decent gardener. Our local gardener (only one) would never have trimmed that bush or mowed the lawn.
