  	This is the house that all of us cousins remember. They built a 2 story office addition on the back. We used to play a mean game of darts down in the finished basement also. HC Horne kept his comic book collection here. They used to have hams and bacon hanging in the storage part of the basement every year. The entire family used to get the hams and bacon from cousin Phillip Chappell. The basement had stairs that led to the kitchen and shadow (one mean Pekingese dog) wouldn't let Gene, Tommy or HC up those stairs anywhere near the kitchen. That dog guarded the refigerator with his life, of yes and we did tease him.
