Between the Heritage Society and the City of Sammamish, step up and have your say (in person if possible)
Talk is easy, but action is necessary.

My grandfather Victor worked at the Monahon Mill and both my Dad and his brother Leslie graduated from Issaquah High School, Dad in 1933. While they were living in that "old" house, there were dances that people from miles around came to join in.
There is a lot of misinformation about that "old" house, and yes, $700,000. is a lot of money, but there is little left of any history on the "Pine Lake Plateau", where I lived and also raised two children.
I pray that someone could donate the time at least to move her, if that is what has to be done.
Or, better idea, since that is a landmark where 'she' sits, why can't 'she' just stay there. A Monahon address maybe once again, sitting on what used to be the original 75 acres. When Grandpa sold to Oscar Freed, who would have thought ? When the moonshiners (renters) had their stills broken up in the big old red barn (that is gone now) during prohibition, who would have thought? When we all climbed the big old walnut tree in the driveway and could see for miles green trees, cows and horses, who would have thought that one day there would be so many roof tops, and history sliding away with time?
I'm rambling, sorry.
