Some stuff to know concerning parking in our neighborhood; We live in a beautiful historic neighborhood. Because the streets are old they aren’t always a standard size. So on most roads you can only park on one side of the street. Parking in front of our house is possible (across the street) but increasingly hard to find after about 9 pm. There are good spots on Cross street and Lafayette street, and these are right around the corner. Hinton St. is also a good spot. Last year Audrey got a ticket for parking within 20 feet of the corner. We are still baffled by the purpose of that particular ordinance, but just to be on the safe side don’t park to close to any corner, especially if you think you'll be staying the night.

Halloween 2011
YAY! It's our favorite time of the year! Things to know:-Bring whomever you like. Your guests are our guests.
-Kids are welcome. While we are no longer toddler-proof, we still do our best to make our party fun for kids as well as adults.
-Bring your favorite snacks and drinks...or not.
-Costumes are great, but not required.
-We have a SteamPunk theme this year. Again participation is not required. This is our 1st year trying a theme and we don't want it to get in the way of your fun or your creativity. Wear what you want.
-We live in an historic neighborhood and parking can sometimes be a mystery. In the next couple of weeks we will publish a map of good spots to find parking.
-A number of our guests bring bedding and spend the night. You are welcome to sleep over as well. If slumber parties aren't your thing there are many cheap hotels in the area. We also have some nice Bed &Breakfasts on our block too. More expensive but really cool.
Those are the basics. If we think of anything else we will publish it here.
Check back often! See you soon!
