************************************************************
Golden Heights (across the highway) was built in 1898 for Dr. George Averill for the cost of $6000. All the lumber and building supplies was brought in by pack train from Spokane WA. There were many loads of finnished timber and highly ornate doors with personalized bronze doorknobs, seven stained glass windows, and many other luxury fittings. Avrerill's wife Flora (who was 20 years younger than her husband) loved to entertain and this was her dream mansion.
