Just a correction: No bed and breakfasts in Bramwell were designed by Frank Lloyd Wright. Some revisionists have put that inaccuracy on a sign in the yard. The architects for the wonderful structure were DeArmond, Ashmead & Bickley of Philadelphia. To my knowledge, the architectural plans were in the house when the current residents moved in, as they have been through at least three former owners. However, the house is still wonderful and my home town is a lovely place.

“Fist place”? I think I’ll avoid that, thank you very much.

Oh yes, Bramwell! I won a fist place or 2 in that competition
Folk, it is a beautiful & historic town. A few tidbits. One of the Bed & Breakfasts was designed by famed architect Frank Lloyd Wright. The bank financed the Ambassador’s Golf Course in D.C. I was the 3rd place in the US to get Chanel No. 5(From what I heard).
So, stop bye & visit this town. The Ocktoberfest is a great little get together & with the leaves changing it is truely a site to behold!! The beer is excellent too!!
I’ll see you there!
