Eleanor’s “fancy“ kitchen where she served everyone meals who came to visit her. She was proud of the fact that she served her guests on Carrel-like dishes, etc.

Back of his home.He lived on the second floor and would pull himself up via a pulley system . Apparently his upper body strength was nothing short of phenomenal. I have always admired him but gained even greater respect and appreciation after touring his home and his library.
