local landmarks

i got to see another log house (c. 1840) in east cobb, the third one built by the same family that i've seen in east cobb --- plus across the river at morgan falls park, a fine stone chimney that was built by the pater familias c. 1830 ---

excepting the porches, the exterior of this one is mostly nineteenth century --- the interior has a lot of twentieth century features --- a great piece of work, but in poor condition ---

the best stringers i've seen --- one of two such on the house
  1. unfortunately, a big ol limb from an oak tree took out the front porch and collapsed the main roof --- very little interior damage so maybe there's hope .
