There is a somewhat odd tradition up here on the mountain of naming houses. People actually have the house name put up somewhere on the exterior. We've got names like "Hagard's Hut" "Still Owing" "Hasty's Retreat" etc.
I have no idea when or where the tradition started, if it's German in origin like the town or what. If I had to guess I'd say it came from a time when street maps and house numbers and street names were significantly less than accurate, which believe it or not presisted up into the 80's around here.
Anyway, being the owner of my first home and a brand new one to boot, I think it needs a name. Friends would like to throw me a house warming/house blessing party in a couple months and I'd like to include the naming of the house in that ceremony.
But what to call it? I'll entertain any and all suggestions because at this point I don't have a clue
Obviously I'd love a Lightfoot inspired name, though it doesn't have to be.
