Fourteen:

The Whaley House in San Diego's Old Town, was not only a theater, meeting house, and general store, it was home to the Whaley family during the 1800s. Prior to the house being built, the land was used for hanging. There are reputed to be many ghosts haunting the building, including those of some of the Whaley's. The house is also a museum which displays many artifacts from the pre-20th century era. It is an impressive collection and the people who lead the tours and maintain the museum are incredibly knowledgeable about the building's history and they are very much involved with the work. It is not just a job, it is a hobby.


These stairs are around the back of the house. I just found the photo to be aesthetic.
