You will be the 3rd Humboldt County blog on HouseBlogs.net. The other one is out in Blue Lake.<BR/><BR/>No, I haven't made it to the HSU Humboldt Room, but I have spent countless hours in the County Library Humboldt room. They have city directories going back to 1898 and before. They also have all of the files used to compile the book, Eureka: An Architectural Review. Even if your house didn't make the book there still may be a file on it. There is also the Statton (?) papers which have a wealth of information, but it is almost too much at times. Lots of tidbits about nothing. You can go crazy in that room. I've got to make it top HSU, though. I'm still looking for an old photo of the house.Greghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02807710209656158413noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11904671.post-88390904958664255832008-04-11T05:05:00.000-07:002008-04-11T05:05:00.000-07:00I did that move with a window last fall. Somehow ...I did that move with a window last fall. Somehow neglected to think about the way ladder was moving AWAY from the window, and as I climbed it, I moved AWAY from the window. So I leaned out a bit, lost my balance, window fell to the floor, leg went through window, end of window.<BR/><BR/>Could have died right there on a piece of jagged glass. Cats were terrified with my yelling about the window. Brand new glass, too.Katherinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12562234516601920734noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11904671.post-65059126636336938392008-04-10T22:57:00.000-07:002008-04-10T22:57:00.000-07:00Hello fellow Eurekan! I stumbled across your blog ...Hello fellow Eurekan! I stumbled across your blog Tuesday and have read what seems like 200 of your entries. We were neighbors for a time, I was at 9th and N, but moved out of the neighborhood two years ago. We purchased a 1914 home on West Avenue. It's going to take a while but we are really hoping to give this home back it's soul. Thanks for all the information, humor and inspiration. Oh yea...and thanks for not killing yourself, that would have SUCKED!<BR/><BR/>One more note, have you been to the Humboldt Room at HSU to research past inhabitants? I was able to follow directories from 1916 and have found at least 42 different families (with names, occupations, etc.)have lived in this home!dezarayehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09860864741161734866noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11904671.post-36741118866777372592008-04-10T19:01:00.000-07:002008-04-10T19:01:00.000-07:00That is really irritating.

When I got to about 300 spam emails a day I had to shut it down. This was about 3 years ago. I didn’t delete the mailbox, I just set the available space down to the minimum size. Once it filled up, which took about a day, everything else got bounced. Well, I never told Network Solutions my new email address and so their warnings about my renewal never got to me. I was surprised as anyone to find out the site was down. I renewed it for another 5 years today and it should be back up soon.Greghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02807710209656158413noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11904671.post-90875633649809718832008-04-10T12:47:00.000-07:002008-04-10T12:47:00.000-07:00I am glad everything turned out OK and the cabinet...I am glad everything turned out OK and the cabinet is up.
