Today I washed windows on the second floor. The wood has the original varnish, which may go back to 1923 when the house was built. So I turned off the stereo, began polishing glass, and listened to the old varnish tell its stories. This window is in our bedroom.

The most poignant stories came from that window that overlooks 17th Avenue South. In this room, now the guest bedroom, the man who built the house and probably applied the varnish died.

In the waning years of WW II, we were living in Rockville Center, Long Island, I was about 12 and dad was dying of a brain tumor. Mom said NYC was no place for a widow to bring up a child, so she packed us up and we took a train to her childhood home in Detroit Lakes Minnesota. That's where she met and married this widower. He was a clothing salesman and outdoorsman.
