Our first ranch house was built in 1900. Three stories, seven bedrooms, one bathroom. Front porch, second floor porch. The top floor had an enclosed balcony with little built in bee doors and once upon a time there were bee hives up there. On purpose. A big ranching family lived and prospered there, we've pics of them outside the house on their horses. Later it was a boarding house and when we got married some of the numbers were still on the bedroom doors. There was a smokehouse in the back and a well. The barn was also three stories with hay storage on the top and dairy accommodations on the ground floor.
Lived there for as long as I could stand it. Tore it down when pregnant with the first and built a new ranch house. Never missed it although everyone in the county was furious.
