northwest; it is aptly named Ridge View.

Its many and large expanses of glass are shaded by the wide overhangs of the hip roof, reminiscent of Frank Lloyd Wright’s so-called “prairie houses.” Its pleasant decor combines the modern with a variety of lovely antiques and a number of examples of the art of Fredric Remington, to whom Mr. Remington is related.

Tea will be served at Ridge View from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m. on both afternoons of the tour. This is included in the block ticket only. If there is a nip in the fall afternoon air, this is a pleasant break in lovely surroundings.

Northwest of the town of Washington, 2.5 miles up Route 622, there is Pleasant View, another house on the tour. It is the home of Jim and Beth DeBergh and their two sons. The DeBergh family decends from the Harrises, who gave the hollow its name, and they represent the seventh generation to live there.

Pleasant View consists of four distinct parts, beginning with the log cabin built in 1785, which is now the kitchen; next the 1810 two-story stone addition and beyond that the brick extension from 1836.

Added to the log house in 1983 is the family room. Another modem addition south of the house is the swimming pool and a pool house built of logs from an old bam.

Pleasant View features many lovely antiques to include a large box piano in the 1836 parlor.
