~SHE'S GONE~
Celebrating my 57th Birthday last Summer on a HOT July night
at the Historic KIRBY HOUSE in Abilene, Kansas was a wonderful experience.
The atmosphere was beautiful.
The service quite good.
The food was delicious with a very nice presentation.
The company was heart warming.
Memories were made.

This week, she had a fire.
Not sure the complete turn out on this.
News is that she is a total loss.
Saddened.
Thankful no human life was lost.

For now, I can see her in my mind's eye
and enjoy the pictures I took.
She was a beautiful PINK Mansion.
May we enjoy our HOMES and FAMILIES
while we can,

Hi Deanna,
How very sad - I do remember the post you did on the magnificent house.
They really do not make houses like this anymore.
Hope you have a lovely weekend and stay warm - the snow looks gorgeous.

Oh Deanna, it makes me sad to look. I hate to see a grand ol'dame go like that. Love old houses, (we live in one) and the thing is that fires eat these dry old homes really quick. What a loss for the owners. So glad no one was hurt. Have a good weekend!

How sad! There is a restaurant in a small town here in MN in an old house that I love to go to. I love to visit those types of places. hopefully they can find another location. I wonder what caused the fire?
what a beautiful building, it is sad when places we love no longer exsist, we have a big Mall here where hubby & me met & it is about to be torn down & turned into strip mall, I think I'm saying that right lol! a circle of many different shops, Memories are precious in deed!

I am beyond upset. I feel sick. :( Homes take on a life and personality all their own...I'm so sorry for this loss.
Happy no one died....
Love you~

My heart is heavy, I hurt all over. How sad to have lost such a wonderful piece of the past. Houses are like my children,I am tearful as I type. My favorite style of house, Second EmPire, that beautiful tower. All I can say id WHY!!!!!! Richard from My Old Historic House.
Can't believe it's gone. So glad that we spent time there last summer, taking pictures, enjoying your birthday. It was truly a beautiful
house. I remember one time we visited and they let us go up in the tower, what a treat.
