Is that Grandma standing on the garage? Note that the garage is lower than the house, which was known as the "stand-pipe" house because it was close to the water tower. Karl's mom remembers that when the tower was filled too full, water from the overflow would splash on the house!

House on a hill

Our house was constructed on the top of W 9th Street hill. Karl's mother and her family lived in it for several years when she was a child. It was moved to its present location in 1941.
