Old houses and buildings around Wisconsin

I am always taking pictures of old houses. When Bill and I lived in Mineral Point, I often brought the camera along when we were out for a walk. Here are some snapshots taken over the last few years, mainly of Mineral Point, and some other pretty, historical destinations and houses from around the state.
