I really wish it were in better shape. It's not an actual painting, that I would definitely restore with full abandon. It's a super thin paper that was glued to the wall and unfortunately is really disintegrating - it you touch it, it actually flakes off in areas. Our house & budget have really taken a beating with all the repairs, so any restoration is sadly going to have to be a future project. For the time being it's unfortunately going to end up being covered again, but left intact with the hope of resurrecting it again in the future. Nice to know it's there, but sad.

We do have a couple neighbors who've been here since the houses were new, so we're going to have to really grill them now. You'd think that would've been the first thing anyone mentioned to me!
