Cass Again: Inside the Company House

64 this morning, cool and pretty with a light fog. Nice day ahead.

I  thought you might like to see the inside of the company house we stayed in at Cass. 

This is the entrance, coming in from the porch.


The living room. That is one comfy rocker.


The kitchen is pretty nice, although the range is electric. But nice big double sink, a dishwasher which we didn't use, good-sized fridge and granite counter tops. Or maybe granite look-alike.

The dining area, looking into the living room.


Larry's bedroom. He didn't make his bed, bad man. Since there were three bedrooms, we each had our own room. With one to spare. It was kinda nice, actually.


My room. It had two beds.


I loved the old floor grate. It reminded me of my  childhood home, where we had the same in the upstairs bedrooms. These allow the heat from downstairs to come up.


This odd angled wall covers up the old fireplaces, which were set in at an angle. I wonder if the bedrooms had fireplaces, though, since they had the floor grates. This may have just covered the chimney?


The other side of my room.


I forgot to take photos of the bathroom, which was also really nice, with a large shower with a clear enclosure and sliding door. 

This was just a nice place to stay--a vintage feel but with modern conveniences.

More from Cass

54 this morning. Rain showers better part of the day, clearing in the late afternoon.

I took so many photos at Cass--the place is just photogenic. So I thought I'd post a few more.

Do you know anyone looking for a cool old car? This one is for sale for 3000.00, and it even runs. Seen behind a house at Cass.


Little red caboose. A frequent sight in my childhood, but today I don't think many cabooses are in use.


Beautiful, huge Mullein plants growing alongside the Greenbrier River Trail.


An interesting pile of stones alongside an abandoned section of railroad tracks.


Cass store as dusk begins to fall, seen from the back.


The Greenbrier river. Such a beautiful river along its whole length.


Looking out one window of our house.


And the view from the porch. I  did so enjoy just sitting out here, in the golden light of the tree's leaves.


Foxtail grass along the trail.


There are apple trees all over the place at Cass, and most of them had apples, although the fruits were on the small side. They tasted pretty good!


More photos coming tomorrow. I have to admit, just looking at them makes me want to go back.
