The Big Pink House

By popular request (OK, 3 people have asked), I'm posting some pictures of the Gribnif homestead, a 10-room Victorian built around 1900.

The color is something that I didn't really intend to be quite so, er, bright. People tend to have a strong reaction to it -- they either take it as an opportunity to attack my manhood (my so called "friends") or they absolutely love it. I've seen several people drive by slowly, pull over, and then get out a camera to take a picture. Of course, I'm assuming they are taking the picture because they like the color scheme so much. Perhaps this is just wishful thinking :-).
