Nice and big. Now that you've proffered an invitation, the myboynoahs will show up on your doorstep some saturday evening after a long sweaty drive from Memphis, ready for an indefinitely long stay.

Florence, Alabama did the same, dumping millions into the renovation of what the town surveyor recommended be condemned and torn down. Thank goodness the mayor prevailed.

The Rosenbaum House was one of many "Usonian" designs by Wright (Usonian = U.S. + onian). His vision was to provide affordable yet artful housing to middle class America. Rosenbaum started out as a three-bedroom, becoming a four bedroom after a Wright-designed addition.

Yeah, that is awkward, and tragic. My kids are crying their eyes out after being told that "Summer at YOhio's" is off.

Guess we'll just go find that big wooden bucket somewhere in Mississippi.

Oh, and I lied about your FLW house. It's big and gawdy and has no "je ne sais quoi." It's not a Usonian.

Of course you are welcome to stay with me provided you show me that you have a current ... NRA membership ... or maybe Men's Health Subscription ... no Runner's World ... no First Things ... no, you need to reveal your new.familysearch.org password. We can make day trips to YOhio's place.

Ah, somebody stepped up to the plate. I knew my membership in this church would pay off sometime. I'll bring my TR and some Diet Dr. Pepper.

Day trips to YOhio's? Hmmmm, let me think about that. That goiter might scare the children.
