Marietta Pilgrimage outside the houses



This past weekend was the Marietta Pilgrimage, aka Marietta Tour of Homes. From previous encounters I know better than to take pictures inside the houses. But, nobody said anything about the outside.

Each year they take a different residential section of near downtown Marietta. This year the house tours were on Wright Street, McDonald Street, and one house on Whitlock Avenue.

The Anderson Mansion, below, was one of the eleven or so Public Houses on the Marietta Pilgrimage Tour. You could drop by, get a snack or check out their facilities; see a man about a dog, if you know what I mean.
