(Gina @ VictorianWannaBe)
This stately residence was built by Nathaniel Leonard and was not completed at his death in 1876 so his son Captain Charles E. Leonard finished the mansion and he and his wife Nadine Nelson Leonard lived here. The farm of 2000 acres, much of which was purchased from the government, was established in 1825 and seven generations of Leonard's have lived here. Successive generations living in one place for over 100 years have accumulated a household of china, glass, paintings, and antique furnishings. Before you see this next picture of me, you need to know that I do not look that young anymore, these photos were taken in 2005, oh my. The young man standing next to me is the seventh generation Leonard to live here and he is our tour guide, his... Leonard of this mansion today. Note the music box on the stand in the hall, The box worked by placing a metal disc on a turntable, the box was wound up, the disc would go around and the music would play.

I didn’t know anyone was as addicted to Alice in Wonderland as i was. I grew up actually, thinking the book was Allyson’s Wonderland. because my name is Allyson (that is how sadly addicted I am. ) OF COURSE, now that I have children and nieces, we now celebrate madness and unbirthdays daily. What a wonderful unbirthday it would be to win one of your contests.
My husband, our two pups and I have the privilege of escaping the cold mid-Atlantic winter weather by heading to the Gulf Coast and visiting with my sister Jean and her husband Frank. The Whites live in the pretty town of Covington, Louisiana on the north shore of Lake Pontchartrain near New Orleans. As though Covington needed more great restaurants and shops, the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina left the town with new businesses opened by folks displaced by floods in New Orleans. Fortunately many of them still remain in business - and though going into New Orleans is a fun option, dining and shopping at the new businesses in the Covington area is also enjoyable. They spend most of their time in a lovely lodge style living room having their every need met with alacrity. Shortly after we arrived, Jean said (in her soft southern voice): "Do you think you guys could help us paint one living room [paneled] wall white. The porches provide shade and protection from hot weather sunshine, but shield the interior of the house from natural light, especially in the short cool days of winter. The first decision was: which interior walls to prime and paint and after that decision was made, what color white.
