I was lucky enough to be invited to do a book signing at Sweetwater Mansion this weekend. I had never been able to enter this house before, so this was very exciting for me. The house was opened up for tours this October by the people that are renovating it and trying to document its history. The tours include history and ghost stories and legends associated with this old house. All funds raised by the tours will be donated to the continued renovation of this beautiful mansion. The house is in significant disrepair and has seen much abuse. In the 1970's, a portion of the house caught on fire and in 2007 vandals broke in and stripped the mansion down to the bones. The renovators certainly have their work cut out for them and they have already worked so hard.
