A journal about life in Wisconsin, decorating, and restoring an 1893 Queen Anne Victorian built by Civil War veteran John Olson Wrolstad and his wife Mathea. Read on to see lots of old photographs, and read stories of the second owners Thomas and Maren Quien, and their children who filled the house with memories for 90 years. Very First Photo I Took of the House Feb 18, 2007 - 30 minutes after we bought the house.

Restoration of the Front Porch - June 2008
My goodness, doesn't look like the same porch, does it? We'll have to wait until summer 2009 to rebuild the railings, spindles, ballasters, and steps. While Dad and Jon worked on the porch, I continued the long process of scraping the exterior. Each section I finished, sanded, primed, and put first coat of color.
