end of an era

This is the rectory for our parish.

It came from a Sears house kit some time in the early 1900s. No kidding. The house was the original convent that served the parish school!

Stay tuned. All this talk of Sears closing has left me feeling nostalgic for the old Christmas catalog — and the hours I’d spent marking all the things I wanted.

Now, I’d be content to look through old catalogs and records to see if I can pinpoint the design and year of construction!
