Hi Jerry,

We just returned from a Midwest trip which included driving old highway 9 the length of Iowa. Beautiful trip this time of year. (Though really not accustomed to the humidity as we live on the high desert of Colorado!)
Stopped in Estherville to visit an elderly aunt of Mary's on her fathers side. We spent several hours driving the town and taking many pictures of places relating to Mary's life there.
We found the so called 'twin' house that is in one of the old pictures we sent you earlier. I have attached them to this mail. No sign of another house that we could find any where near this one. Maybe they weren't 'twin' houses? Big mystery since the term seems to be in the family history. We talked to some old timers and no one knew about the houses. Note they have converted the screen porch and the elaborate scroll work must have gotten too much to paint! Not many chickens in the yard these days either.   Hope you are well. Regards,   Mary and Dennis   (Thanks Mary)
