These pages are intended to be used to celebrate the quality of life in Southeastern Massachusetts.These pictures will, in the near future (and with any luck), be interspersed with explanatory text.
There are a couple more pictures here.
This is a typical New England barn, built in the early 1700s to hold grain, then converted in the 1800s to hold animals with hatlofts. We used it to hold goats when we were actively farming, now it is just a workshop and storage place.
This is a typical Cape Cod Cottage of the early 1700s. The hardware and construction date it to around 1735 or so, but there are a couple of reused pit-sawn boards that are older. We put in insulation and an oil burner in the 1980s.
Typical scenery in our region.
Southeastern Massachusetts is defined by water, shoreline and ponds and bogs and wetlands.
The joke is that this is the principal crop.
This may actually be in Maine, but the shoreline is similar.
