Berkeley Springs Castle
The Samuel Taylor Suit Cottage, also known as the Berkeley Castle, is located on a hill above in Berkeley Springs, Morgan County, WV. The castle-like house was built for Colonel Samuel Taylor Suit of Washington, D.C. as a personal retreat near the spa town, beginning in 1885. It was not complete by the time of his death in 1888 and was finished in the early 1890s for his widow, Rosa Pelham Suit, whom Suit had first met at Berkeley Springs. The post 1888 work is of noticeably inferior quality.
The fifteen-room interior features a ballroom 50 feet wide and 40 ft long. The design is attributed to Washington architect Alfred B. Mullett, who is alleged to have drawn a rough sketch of the plan on a tablecloth at the Berkeley Springs Hotel. The design may have been based on elements of Berkeley Castle in Gloucestershire, United Kingdom. Detailed design and construction supervision was carried out by Snowden Ashford, who designed Washington's Eastern Market, apprenticed for Mullett and is also credited as an architect. Mrs. Suit entertained lavishly at the house until her money ran out and the property was sold in 1913.
sailing through the gap in the Berkeley pier saturday, on our way to the Gracie and George race...
as late as the 1950s, I think?, Berkeley had ferry service to SF, but the water close to shore is too shallow, so they had this long long LONG pier, something like two miles out into the water -- no more ferries now, & the thing is half-fallen down, but the rest remains -- makes for our very own Stonehenge-like structure, & something to avoid while sailing... (this one gap is Known to be safe)

Interesting little Food Delivery robots and likely some proseltyizers. Google sucks now so it's hard to figure out who they were. The signs say "I have good news" and "I have bad news"
