Concord House

There is a house on Nashatuck hill in Concord with beautiful open spaces It was built in the 1930s and it has an Adirondack style porch that looks out over a small valley and Concord center The house has three stories and on every story the detail work is craftsmanship shining wood railings grand moldings I don’t know who lives there now I only saw it once like a boy whose eyes meet yours that you never forget somehow I am sure by now some wonderful wealthy people have moved in and given it beautiful colors filled it with beautiful lamps and light and laughter I am sure it has become a show place where people come and go and ohh and ahhh and laugh and eat and chink glasses and I will always remember it just like a boy I loved once even thought I may never step foot inside it’s doors again

Dearest Ingrid - Forgive me for not keeping abreast lately. This is wonderful. I drove by my old house, not long ago. It became two times bigger and actually prettier than when I lived in it. Not sure I ever want to go in. love you, Kathy
