Some Added Info on Bath, Before We Leave...

You note, in the previous blog, how all the townhouses looked the same in front.  Well, that is how the builder/seller built them.  The only catch: the builder/seller only built THE FRONT of the homes, not the backs.  You had to get your own builder to do the back.  So, if you take a look BEHIND those facades, you will see a higgelty-pigglety bunch of very different houses -- some brick and tall, some wood and short, some just plain weird and ugly!

Bath was a "planned community" just like Lake Chesterfield or Lake St. Louis.  Makes it seem less important, huh!!?!  

And lions.  Lion statues all over.  Don't know why, but there are at least a hundred of them!

  1. It's like the horse statues in Louisville and the pig statues in Cincinnati. There were cow statues in some other city, but I don't remember which one.
