For some reason that movie "House of Wax" comes to mind. I too love old towns. I find them so charming, and your photos show it off perfectly. Must have been a beautiful day too...not a cloud in sight. Excellent entry! #:O)

How come we say 'It's colder than hell outside' when isn't it realistically always colder than hell since hell is supposed to be fire and brimstone?

Looks close to the town I live in.... but we just got a fancy Grocery Store...built from scratch (30ft X 30ft) and not reusing one of the three other older buildings ...called Uncle Bubba's Fillingim

That is so cool they still have places like that.If they never had all the wires going to the buildings, now That would be hertiage huh.
