The instant I saw her I knew. It was love at first sight and that love grew over the years. What began as curiosity "I wonder what those marks are on the beams." became "I have to find out about her history". While some of those musings were rewarded, there were many that I could not fathom. There were only a limited number of years that I was able to go back and find answers, then I came up against a blank. The cottage holds on to her secrets but I hope you will enjoy your journey, and perhaps, love her as I did.
