Beautiful day to learn about the architecture of St. Paul homes and a little history too. Douglas was very knowledgeable.
Response from Host, May 2026
Thank you. We had a beautiful day for our morning stroll, and you local group of friends was fun to be with. Local residents are often my most intrigued tour guests. I'm sure the following lunch was good, too. Hope to see you again!

We very much enjoyed how Doug intertwined the families' histories with the architecture of the homes. He was very organized and personable.
