There Is Something In There

Yesterday, I shirked my responsibilities to my house and the Baby and I went to some antique shops in downtown Leesburg. These shops are in old homes in the historic part of town. So many neat and over priced items, but fun to look at. My sister tells me that the antique business is going down hill as people aren't as interested as they used to be. If you're looking for old dishes though, this is the place to be.

So, we are walking through one building that in it's day used to be "the" grand home in the town. It was so cool. Lots of stairs, nooks, crannies, a maze to get lost in. I stopped in this one little nook to look at this old wedding gown. I picked it up and was admiring it and I noticed that this spot in the house was much colder than the rest. The Baby came up behind me and I said, "Look at this dress. Isn't it beautiful?" And he said, "Why is it so cold right here?" We walked away and I started looking around and lost him in the maze of the house.

I was walking down the stairs and I saw him at the bottom and he said, "I need to get out of here, I feel like I can't breathe. There is "something" in here."

We left and we were walking down the sidewalk and I looked up at the house and I said, "It's so beautiful." And he said, "I don't care if they were giving it away. I would not live there. There is something in there!!!!!"
