I hope you can appreciate my slightly congested ramble. the community on TikTok has been unlike any I have ever encountered in my life and I expect will never encounter again. that doesn't make this time not valuable. values change over time, lifestyles change, communities change. sometimes looking back at the way things were it becomes easy to judge and looking forward it's easy to hope. I think hope and judgment can go both directions though. anyway, this home is the Firestone Farmhouse. yes, as in the tire company, which is one of the reasons it's at Henry Ford's Greenfield Village. "Originally located near Columbiana, Ohio, the 1828 house was updated in 1882 to appear more stylish and up-to-date. The traditional Pennsylvania German layout of the Firestone's farmhouse was transformed, with a central foyer, separate dining room and kitchen, a sitting room, closets, wallpaper, and fancy new furniture."
