Hello, neighbors, Kathleen and I had an enjoyable time on the Holiday House Tour. Thanks to all those who helped make it happen (Dawna, Jenny, Val, Sandy, and anyone else I've missed.)
We were particulary impressed by the Manzolillo household and all the neat fixtures and art they have. Did anyone notice the Coldwell-Banker sign several houses to the south of the Manzolillo's that read "Drama Priced"? What does that mean? It was neat to meet Doreen Bolger, BMA Executive Director, who was showing off her house, with its William Morris theme. Incidentally, a week or so ago there was an open house at the Homewood House. They were hosting the JHU Press and had many authors on hand for book signing. They were serving Madeira in the basement, which I read was a very popular beverage in the era of the original owners. Wendy Brody, wife of the Hopkins President, was meeting and greeting everybody who walked through the door, and it was a pleasure to meet her. I heard that there are occasional openings of Homewood House in the evening by candlelight. I think that would be quite pretty to see. --Emil -- Emil Volcheck [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://acm.org/~volcheck _______________________________________________ Chat mailing list [email protected] http://charlesvillage.info/mailman/listinfo/chat_charlesvillage.info
