Little Yellow House in North Texas.....The beginning





This little Texas house was built in 1919 and stands in one of Ft. Worth's oldest historic districts. The windows are all original....most of the wooden floors are too...if you climb into the attic you will find two fireplace chimneys. After investigating I found out the living room fireplace is one of the chimneys and the other once was for the fireplace which at one time was in the kitchen. The biggest thing you will notice when you are up in the attic is not only the vastness of the attic, but there is NO insulation any where to be found! What does that mean? Cold, very cold in the winter!!! One of my most favorite parts of the house is the front porch. When I am not planting front and backyard gardens.....that is where you will find me!
