Fun Fact:
We’ve all heard the expression “If these walls could talk.” Well, the walls in Tom’s 1800’s farmhouse speak to him. During renovation projects, he finds newspaper clippings, magazines and even someone’s hidden homework. His neighbors tell him it’s haunted by cigar smoking card players, but Tom has yet to see an ace holding shadow billowing smoke rings!
