"Carrol Avenue Homes"

I grew up going to the tours of these what I thought to be mansions of my childhood, you see my great grandparents lived here and my great aunt & uncle bought it from my great grandmother and lived here until my uncles death this year. I have very fond memories fo sitting on the front porch with my Aunt Ruby and sitting in the front parlor my my Uncle Charles. These houses are amazing inside. I remember being in another house on the street climbing a winding staircase so narrow but the house was beautiful and you could smell the scent of old wood in the houses. Such a far cry from the track home I live in now. My great-grandmothers house was very unique as it had a butlers pantry inside the dinning room with a window that opened up to the kitchen and I think there was even a dumb waiter that went upstairs. It has been many years since I have been there but I know my entire family has fond memories of visiting there.Several family members were even married there by my Uncle Charles who was a minister I think at the Angeles Temple many years ago.
