These photos are not from a real house. This is actually a model of a general store that once operated in Mitchell County and is so realistically complete that the miniature photos on the wall are actually relatives of the original store owners. See this week's The Enterprise Journal for a feature story on this amazing creation. Better yet...stop into the museum and view it yourself!!! It's worth the visit.
