9. My city has been around for nearly 300 years and still has many carriage houses

The second floor of my house has a bedroom, bathroom and kitchen/living room. The first floor has a garage, laundry and a utility room. The bedroom opens onto a back deck which overlooks a small yard with surrounding flower beds, which I call "the garden." My neighbor's bamboo forest borders the eastern side of the yard.

My city has a long and rich history. Lancaster, PA, was founded in 1729 and served as the temporary capital of the US for one day in 1777, after the Continental Congress fled Philadelphia when it was captured by the British. Thaddeus Stevens, the famously fierce abolitionist and a US House Representative during the Civil War period, called Lancaster home, as did our second-worst president, James Buchanan.


Thanks!
