We visited a memorable historical House .? The house had a "foundation" 
made from whale bone vertebrae.? It was at least 150 years old and was 
still in great shape.

as an aside, the once in a lifetime remembrance from that house was a 
small jar, which you were allowed to open to smell REAL whale oil.

Horrid.
