Maybe I'm too nostalgic..
But these are the type of houses we lived in and all our neighbors lived in , when I was a little boy.
Good memories.

Every one of these old houses represents the hopes and dreams of the people that live in them. I would love to know their history.

One of the neat things about living in military housing is often times when families would depart from one post to another, they would hide a note in the home for subsequent occupants to find that told a little bit about who they were and what they enjoyed about the house or the area. We always hid a little story and where usually successful in finding the stories others left behind.

I stumble onto old abandoned cabins from time to time in Alaska and the cabin calls to me loudly wanting to tell me it’s story. If I have the time I try to look around for clues about those who shared their lives on that spot and in that home.
