RENOVATION

Check out this gathering at the James Lee House in the late 1800s early 1900s...can't wait to throw the first party of the 21st Century!

and interesting view of the parlour of the Lee House in 1974--I believe the house was being used as storage for furniture that perhaps was donated to the Woodruff-Fontaine House. Note the broken mirror over the fireplace.
