I bought the home he built in 1889 on Macon Ave. He has quite the story as well. But, for now I have to tell a little story of my own about this Historic Macon house. The City Historian who made all our history at the museum happen, came to live in the Historic Macon carriage house in 2013-2015. So history continues thanks to Cara Fisher and she ended her time in Canon in the Historic setting she so loved for Canon City. A little piece of history for those reading this article.
