Please join us for the make-up walking tour to celebrate National Preservation Month on <strong>Saturday, June 2<\/strong>. Meet in front of <strong>21 South Loudoun Street at 1:30 PM<\/strong>, the first building to be marked with the oval plaque, to join a tour guide. We will go past the exteriors of homes in the Potato Hill neighborhood, with a small break for refreshments at 125 E. Clifford St., the latest home to receive the building plaque. The tour will loop back to the edges of the Old Town Mall on Boscawen Street. The overall time is estimated to take one hour to an hour and a half. The tour is approximately one mile in length. Be sure to dress for the weather and wear comfortable walking shoes. Some of the sidewalks are uneven or narrow, and there are a few hills and one set of steps on the final leg of the tour.<\/p>\n<p>Friday Photos returns this week with 26 slides, most featuring the <a href=\"https:\/\/flic.kr\/s\/aHskyejLub\">Simon Lauck House<\/a> or 401-403 S.
