13 of us came, colleagues from the Seminaries and Institutes of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. We were all so impressed by the presentation of the young lady who guided us through the home and rooms. Her knowledge was outstanding, and she was delightful in her presentation. Thank you so much!

We really enjoyed touring the house, decorated for Christmas. The guide was good, very knowledgeable. It was interesting to hear about both the Harrison family as well as the Jameson family.
