I'm in Ohio.
I moved into an apartment, about seven years ago and left it about 4 years ago, that was 42 steps up to the third floor of an old home. The ceilings on the first and second floors were high enough that I was basically looking at four flights of stairs. It was crazy, running up and down those stairs in this old home. But there were nooks and crannies and rooms and a thousand neat features, like a balcony with big pillars off the kitchen ... and 150 some years of history. I went to the local library and found the file on the house. There was a great deal of interesting information.
Didn't much care for the bats, who found their way from the attic that was connected to my giant apartment in the sky. My cats, however, found them fascinating.
