Here were his memories:<br /><br />when i'm reading a story i always use this house as the basis for my imagination... i'll adjust the layout to accomodate the story up until the point where i have no choice but to abandon it all together and build a new house from scratch.<br /><br />so to me... this is harry potters house, clark kents house, the house for the magicians nephew in chronicles of narnia, pennywise the clown lives in the sewer out front...<br /><br />i've got it with green carpet and the long heavy wood entertainment center w/ built in record player in the living room... there's a glass bowl of brach's mints/butterschotch on the coffee table... maybe a small bowl of radishes on the table... and there's a brown cookie jar forever in the kitchen window sill.<br /><br />the front porch in this pic is lookin a bit too nice for my taste. needs plenty of weathering and a nice coat of lead paint if you want my opinion.<br /><br />i don't think i'd dare go back in it as an adult for fear of recognizing it for what it actually is vs. how i have it in my mind from an 8yr olds perspective... it was huge.framikohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10274581567045478300noreply@blogger.com
