The bridge is just the other side of the tall house.<br><br>Grandmother&#39;s house seemed far bigger to me in my youth.&nbsp; And there is a lovely side porch in the back and there was a freestanding summer house.&nbsp; The other side of the house was totally flowers including the very tall holyhocks and others of that type as well as medium and low flowers.&nbsp; It was a wall of blooms.</font></p><p><font size="4">Still thinking of grandmother&#39;s house, the summer kitchen was a complete one-room structure with peaked roof and a concrete sidewalk in front of it.&nbsp; The wood burning cast iron stove was housed in the back and a table and chairs were in the front.&nbsp; It really was used all summer long for dining whether stove use was involved or not.</font></p><p>&nbsp;</p></div>
