Into this house

Happy 2's day, all! But otherwise there's not much to report so let's carry on with a little bit more of the Turner-Dodge House. There's just a couple more days of this, never fear.

In the second floor's hallway are these pictures showing the Turner-Dodge House's original configuration as seen in 1858 (also, wow, photograph from 1858!) and then from its renovation a half-century later when the place was expanded, most notably by having a third floor put on.

Walking back through the boys' room and noticing how something got torn off the wall at some point.

I don't know why I didn't photograph the light-up Snoopy figure in the room before. I apologize for the mistake.

Photographing the entrance from near the top of the stairwell.

Looking slightly towards the back of the house from the stairway landing. The dining room is at the far right, and to the left, the room where we tourists enter as well as a Santa Claus about to reach criticality.

Although there wasn't a Festival of Trees like we saw New Year's Day 2020, there were a few trees from organizations. Like, this one was decorated with what looked to be the disassembled pieces of a chandelier, from something called the Unique Boutique. I'm supposing that gives us an idea of what the place is like, but can't speak from direct experience.

Trivia: The 1988 Calgary Games provided a luxury sedan and driver for every member of the Olympic retinue; the 216 automobiles logged over 700,000 kilometers driven.
