Today was a record nice 79 degrees and we may see another record fall tomorrow.
Talk about record nice. One thing I didn't want to miss Saturday was the tour of the
converted water tower house next to Waukesha Memorial Hospital. Five dollars for charity was a reasonable fee for the curious and there were a lot of us. The line to get in was a block long and took about an hour and a half but the weather was great so no complaints.
There's a lot to love in this home. The outside, landscaped with huge limestone slabs and colored gravel perfectly compliments the deep yellow with gray accents of the cylindrical art deco building. The interior is light and warm and huge. The white stucco ceiling is 40 feet high and the white walls are broken up with plenty of paintings, framed photographs and huge windows. Besides the basement garage there's three other floors connected by curving white stairways.
All the appliances and fixtures are modern and trendy and the wooden cabinetry is really soft and beautiful. The bathrooms are roomy, storage is plentiful and all bedrooms come with a view to die for. I would love to wake up to a sunrise in one of the top floor bedrooms.
