It was fun how everyone rallied around Bradbury’s “There Will Come Soft Rains" yesterday. Someone cool in chat suggested Henry Kuttner and C. L. Moore’s “Vintage Season” ( https://www.fadedpage.com/showbook.php?pid=20220847) as another great story-about-a-house and I enjoyed it last night.

Vintage SeasonEverybody seemed to want the old house during May—and seemed willing to pay fantastic prices for the privilege. Strange tourists they were, too. The Café Society of another time. The 1992 American film Timescape, also titled Grand Tour: Disaster in Time, was loosely based on Vintage Season, though with a happy ending substituted for the somber conclusion of Catherine L. Moore's original.--Wikipedia.fadedpage.com

TWCSR reminded me of PKD’s Autofac ( https://www.philipdick.com/mirror/websites/pkdweb/short_stories/Autofac.htm), which made for a pretty good if only kinda sorta related (as per) episode of Electric Dreams ( https://www.imdb.com/title/tt6902176/), which I really wish had expanded into a modern day Amazing Stories. Neither, unfortunately, are quite old enough to be able to share directly.
