An Abandoned Men's Club is Now A Home - In Selma AL

I grew up around antiques and such. My mother has collected them, and I have and extensive collection of Matchbox Diecast cars. I've only got one piece of antique furniture in my current home.

Toy WagonBut when I read this article about an Atlanta engineer who took a 20,000 sq. ft men's club and turned it into a home...I just had to stop and say...wow!

Selma is one town in Alabama that I have never been to.  One of these days I need to jump in the car and take a road trip and explore the place.
