are you the one who lived in the baity house??

i lived there from 1981 to 1989 and i bought those gold fish for the lilly 
pond/and was best friends of chesley baity/fascinating lady and family.

i have a friend in durham who is going by to try to rescue them if they kept 
it/from the trees on the right of the house it seems they could be alive.

i was shocked when i saw it.  i actually lived there when i was a student 
andwhen it was the russian house (friend and i painted the red mailbox when 
wemoved in:-)  it was really an amazing house and only needed, at the 
time(1991-ish) some plumbing and electrical renovation as the structure was 
quitesound.  
the old wood paneling was exquisite.  as i remember, it was builtaround the 
20's 
(definitely that style) so i would have thought that it couldbe historically 
protected.  there was a goldfish pond that weuncovered-probably hadn't been 
tended in about 15 years at the time and thesebeautiful giant japanese 
goldfish 
were still thriving after being covered inyears of leaf piles.poor little 
fish-after surviving all of that i guess they finally met theirend with a 
bulldozer.ironically, i was just about to take some friends new to town over 
for 
the'check where i used to live' tour and saw the carnage...nice.beth
