Bourne Mansion

Stacy, Beth, and I braved the arctic winds on Monday morning to tour the Bourne Mansion. As we shivered outside, waiting for the guard to let us in, Beth told me a little bit about the building. Built by the Singer family, of sewing machine fame, it was originally named Indian Neck Hall.

The guard let us in and I gasped. What a place!
The grand staircase in the foyer, the crystal chandelier in the dining room; the ballroom with the beautiful skylight set in a 40 foot ceiling, pipe organ, and balcony; the massive fireplace and elegant long table in the library; the parquet floors and Persian rugs; the views of the bay. Oh my, graphic novels definitely have arrived!


This mansion will set the stage of what is sure to be a memorable event.
