Shutters, Milan, OH - a photo on Flickriver

            I have kind of a thing about shutters on houses that are decorative and not functional. As in, get rid of them!  Especially plastic ones screwed permanently in place by people who seem to have forgotten that they ever had a function.  The distaste can even extend to functional ones that are open just because they resemble fake ones!  On the other hand, I find nothing more attractive and historically appropriate looking than to see the original shutters on an old house, closed!  Aren't these beautiful?!  Reminds me of Old New Orleans or some antebellum plantation house.
