Okay, anyone who has ever driven on 280N has seen this house — just north of the Eugene Doran Bridge, on the east side of the freeway:
Last week, Jon and I noticed that the house has been painted a deep terra cotta. The new coat of paint brought some renewed attention to the house, so I just learned that it's called "
The Flintstone House."
Huh? Flintstones?!? I've always referred to it as "The Barbapapa House." See:
The Flintstones lived in a stone structure made with large rocks and slabs. There's definitely a stronger resemblance between the Hillsborough residence and the Barbapapa house.
