Sandi, How neat that they were able to acquire the 2012 White House Easter flag! I love historical buildings and enjoy visiting the St. Augustine, Florida area about 40 miles north of us so I thank you for sharing the photo of the historical marker showing information about your friends house. Wow, 22" thick stone walls and built in 1875 ... that sturdy house has been around a long time and will no doubt stand for many more years to come! Homes like that are treasures for sure!
