My name is Carol Motsenbocker. My parents built this house and we moved in when I was 12 years old.It is a wonderful house and was very exciting when I was growing up. OU students came by the busload to see the house and my mother, Mary, always let everyone in. My sister, Cathy, and I had a routine to pick up the house in a hurry and make it ready to show. The new owner is wonderful. The outside of the house is the same except for color. The inside was opened up and is still much the same. The pond in the backyard was always fun because the frogs loved it.! The only thing that was scary were lighting storms. The entire back of the house is glass and much of the front so a storm was something!
I created these blog sites on the architecture of Bruce Goff as my statement of appreciation and thanks. I had the pleasure of being able to work with him for over three years in the mid-seventies when he had his office in Tyler, Texas.
