Bootlegger's Ball Kicks off Home Tour Weekend

The Tour also highlights the incredible diversity of house types and architecture in Riverside/Avondale.

Having your home on the Tour is exciting, exhausting, rewarding, and for us, in the "never again" category.

The Talbot house had over 1300 people "walk" through it. The one on Bayard, where I was for Saturday, had 600 in 3 hours. I would take a long vacation over that weekend, and hope that people wiped their feet before I allowed them to trounce through my Edgewood Avenue House.

I heard that the owners of the Challen house made the guests put on foot booties?

Not surprising.  I did a one-hour talk on local / sustainable food at the Jacksonville Symphony Show House (something I think they do every year) a year or two ago and that was a requirement.  I opted to go shoeless :-)
