Hello! My name is Sara Ruch. My family, friends, & I are resuscitating an 1860s second empire mansion in Jim Thorpe, PA and thought you might enjoy following along. Welcome to Pigeon Manor!

A little more about us: We like to do stuff! We have an organic farm/orchard, a bar next door, and a band. I also love to write fiction and one day I’ll finally, FINALLY publish the urban fantasy series I’ve been working on forever. If you want to know how we got started here at Pigeon Manor, here is the link to the very first blog post where I talk about how this happened. Here is a picture of our family, circa 2020. We are all making this face because this is the face Kevin makes in 99.9% of the photographs taken of him, so we wanted to match.
