Visit to Nathan and Liz







We went to West Lafayette to see Nathan and Liz and decided to stay at the Commandant's House Bed and Breakfast. They are both doing well. The house was very interesting. It is located on the grounds of the Veteran's facility. It was constructed in the 1890s for the director of the Vet home for civil war vets. Cost $8000 including furnishings. Smaller rooms, grand hallways, and excellent food. The first picture shows the early electric wiring; the original lighting was done with gas lamps (at the time this was really THE thing). The fireplace sculpture shows a civil war scene.

So that's not Nathan and Liz's house, then.
