every day that i drive on the highway leading to our house i see the house i am in love with. the highway is not one that is used very much anymore, and the house is sitting back far from the road. leading up to it are two rows of trees with an overgrown "driveway" in the middle. i have always wanted a driveway like that. this house is empty. i don't know how long it has been that way. all i know is that this house fascinates me. i can't not look at it every time i go past. it's very big. almost mansion size. the architecture is pretty cool. the yard is massive. there is a spirit about that house. i think is has a soul. i can image the life that use to live in it. maybe it has been around a very long time and it use to have servants running around it and children playing in the yard outside it. maybe a horse and buggy would be sitting out front...waiting to go down the long driveway. maybe it was owned by a very wealthy business man that feel in love and had the house built for his new bride. i can imagine that the hallways were once filled with laughter and the dining area was alive with dinners and parties. i don't know why someone would leave such a wonderful house...why it was abandoned never to be lived in again. but it's a very interesting place. i wish i could go back in time to see how it use to be. to see the old owners that use to live in it.
