I once toured a home where the children's room had a fire pole so the kids could slide down to the first floor.
Who, I thought, wouldn't want one of those?
Hidden rooms, bookcase doors, underground passages, and slides join the fire pole on my list of items that are sadly missing from most homes. Many of us have seen houses that some less-enlightened souls describe as "eccentric" because that sounds nicer than "weird."
But what about "eccentric" as "really neat" or "fun?"
