The building that Ed Sauter built in 1899, and that housed his family and his saloon through 1905 — that building has lost its old siding and, for the moment, you can see the original clay blocks, which probably came from one of the Hobart brickyards in 1899.
According to the permit posted on the front, Sauter's Place is getting new siding and a new roof. So the blocks will soon disappear again, but I'm glad that this little part of Ainsworth is being rejuvenated rather than demolished.
I feel in need of rejuvenation myself, and I am taking a little break from blogging.

I'm glad to here it's not coming down. I used to drive by that intersection thinking what used to here--the building indicated that something more was in Ainsworth at one time as did the school building. So it's fitting that it remains so other folks might wonder. . .
