Chandelier Tours... Albany, Oregon

Things do get a little interesting here in Albany sometimes and I know... that's a shocker!  But... Albany has it's summer tour of historic homes and it's famous Christmas Parlour Tour, so... why not add an "ALBANY CHANDELIER TOUR???"

Open your curtains and let us walk through our historic districts with a guide book full of stories and history and ogle the chandeliers that adorn our homes through lit windows.  Many of them have amazing history, many are original to the home and some are just plain gaudy.

The previous owners of our 1908 Craftsman Bungalow left not only a ton of original sconces, they left the homes first chandelier!  It needs to be re-wired so we are on a mission to find someone to do that!

Let me know if you have a chandelier you want to show off and we'll see if we can't put together a little event.  Timing it with our awesome Cemetery tour/event put on by the Albany Regional Museum would be perfect!

I will let you know if this pans out and provide dates and times as things progress!

"What is my perfect crime? I break into Tiffany's at midnight. Do I go for the vault? No. I go for the chandelier. It's priceless. As I'm taking it down, a woman catches me. She tells me to stop. It's her father's business. She's Tiffany. I say no. We make love all night. In the morning cops come and I escape in one of their uniforms. I tell her to meet me in Mexico, but I go to Canada. I don't trust her. Besides, I like the cold. Thirty years later I get a postcard. I have a son, and he's the chief of police. This is where the story gets interesting: I tell Tiffany to meet me in Paris by the Trocadaro. She's been waiting for me all these years, she's never taken another lover. I don't care, I don't show up. I go to Berlin. That's where I stashed the chandelier."
