Laurent House and Brookfield, WI

8.11.23

Mileage: 1121

Brookfield, Wisconsin



While Kenny worked, Rockford, IL had one more place I wanted to visit before leaving, Laurent House.  This home is the only place Frank Lloyd Wright designed specifically for a person living in a wheel chair.  As with many FLW designs this one has undergone extensive renovation.  The home is now back to its original glory with clean lines, Cherokee Red floors, and a beautiful setting.  


















After touring the beautiful home I ventured on to Wisconsin (state #8). Kenny went ahead of me to work in a Walmart parking lot.  We then made it to our destination for the night, the lovely home of my college roommate, Michele and her husband Soren.  



We had a great dinner at one of their favorite places nearby and called it a night.

If you read this far here is a picture of Comet who doesn't understand time zones.  After getting me up early he is now taking a nap.
