RE: Shaker Village in Canterbury, NH
howdy there melinda010100! aren't the shakers an interesting group?
I remember visiting a similar looking set of buildings in Kentucky for the Quakers or maybe they were Shakers too. I think they died out pretty fast because they had that celibacy thing going on. I remember the men and women slept in different areas to keep anything from happening and I thought their whole theology was very short sighted! lol.
But what an interesting post with wonderful pictures!
I think Pleasant Hill is in KY. That is also a historical Shaker community. I always wanted to visit there, too, but never did
yes that sounds very familiar indeed. It was a very interesting visit to that place and of course their sect gave birth to the Shaker furniture style which some people love.
