A Result!

I've taken a break, organized my thoughts and now will focus on a short blog. Since I began writing about, and visiting Rocky Edge, I have found several people interested in this little mansion in Allendale. Granted most are artists or artisans, but isn't that a great result? It's becoming a continuing photographic archival, and the interest is up. Rocky Edge is an interesting subject, there isn't one identifiable thing that makes Rocky Edge so special. The entire property and elaborate layout gives you a sense of the flair used in its creation, but when you venture outside you will find even more creativity. Terre Haute has many treasures that are more interesting than Rocky Edge. I just think Rocky Edge is a small treasure of old Terre Haute. It's not the greatest treasure by any means, but one could get a sense of the early 1920s in Terre Haute, from the perspective of a very wealthy man, and Terre Haute's culture in the early 1920s.
