Interesting Family History
Seelye Mansion的点评
点评：We had the pleasure of touring this mansion last week while visiting Abilene. We met Terry Tietjens, its current owner, who is as nice and interesting a person as one can will ever meet. Terry lived in the mansion for many years with the former owners, two elderly ladies, and still lives on the grounds but not in the mansion. Prior to our tour, Terry gave us the history of the man who built it, Mr. Seelye, who manufactured and sold a variety of patent medicines and herbal supplements and made a fortune doing so.
The house tour was very interesting and our guide was a walking encyclopedia of Seelye information. The tour encompasses all three floors of the mansion as well as the basement. The condition is immaculate which is living testimony to Terry's love of it. One of the highlights was the "box-bowling" alley in the basement. I had never heard of that form of bowling having grown up in the northeast with candlepin and duckpin bowling. It may be the last box-bowling lane in existence. Every one on the tour had the opportunity to roll a few balls down the alley.
For anyone visiting Abilene, this is a must-visit!

翻译：上周，我们有幸在阿比林参观了这座豪宅。我们遇到了现任主人特里·蒂特金斯 (Terry Tietjens)，他是一位和蔼可亲、风趣幽默的人，无人能及。特里曾与前任主人——两位老太太——在这座豪宅里生活多年，至今仍住在庄园里，但已不再住在豪宅里。参观之前，特里向我们讲述了建造这座豪宅的人——西利先生 (Seelye) 的故事。他曾生产和销售各种专利药品和草药补充剂，并因此发了大财。
这次豪宅之旅非常有趣，我们的导游简直就是西利的活百科全书。我们参观了豪宅的三层楼以及地下室。豪宅的维护得一尘不染，活生生地证明了特里对它的热爱。地下室的“盒式保龄球”球道是一大亮点。我从来没听说过这种保龄球，因为我从小在东北部长大，玩的是烛瓶保龄球和鸭瓶保龄球。这或许是现存的最后一条保龄球道了。每位参赛选手都有机会在球道上滚上几圈。
对于任何来阿比林旅游的人来说，这都是必游之地！
