What a great post @honeycup-waters! I love the photos and thank you for taking the time to explain things along the way. I'm always a bit saddened when a "restoration" turns modern; I love when things are simply "restored" to their own glory days :)

I found your post because @matkodurko featured you in a Pay it Forward Curation Contest entry; please feel free to join us with an entry of your own some week :)
