Home away from home

Okay, I swear this is my last Montana post. You've been very patient. But it was such a fun trip, and besides, Meema posted waaaay more photos of her recent trip to New York, so there.

Hamilton has a charming residential area; these are some of my favorite houses. The stone house with the turret is my absolute favorite. It's on the other end of the block of my childhood home, and it's stunning, from the tiny windowpanes to the elaborate woodwork, beautiful airy rooms, and river stones covering every inch. The stones are not original to the house, but they're old. And they were brought up bucket by frickin' bucket from the riverbed almost a mile away by the builder. Or so legend has it.
