Allegheny West House Tour

Jenny and I went on the Allegheny West Victorian Christmas House Tour last year, and we enjoyed it.  We decided that we should do it again this year, and maybe try to find some other people who wanted to come with us.  Two friends of ours came, and we had a great time.  I think Jenny and I would both recommend this tour to anyone who wants to see some great historic houses, and see an example of what can happen when a neighborhood–that was otherwise falling apart–pulls together and gets organized.  We’re trying to do that in our little neighborhood of Parnassus.  If we have even a tiny bit of the success that they’ve had in Allegheny West, I think we’ll be doing just fine.  Actually, in a year or two, I could see us having a house tour around here, too.  There are some great houses, great people, and great history.  That sounds like the makings of an interesting tour!
