The address


One of the things which drew me to our house was the beautiful stained glass over the shop door. When the shop door was removed I made the guys take extra care of the stained glass so that we could keep it - assuming we could find a space 4 feet wide. I was surprised to learn that the glass was not original to the house (oh, of course - Burgundy was called Craps originally) or not even done when it became a shop, probably around 1930. The beautiful glass was done by the lovely and talented Cindy during their remodel, some time in the 1982-1994 time. It's going home with the rightful owner, Mike, and I hope to some day fashion my own - smaller - version. I've long wanted to learn to work with stained glass - Cindy has inspired me.
