Another view of “Upper Residence” looking southeast and the distillery in the background. The Hamer brothers, the third owners of the village, remodeled this cabin and “Lower Residence”. The village reached it’s peak in the 1850′s with about twenty families.

A view of the west fireplace on the first floor, the one to the right in the photo above.
"Upper Residence" & School
Here is a view of the west end of “Upper Residence” looking east-northeast. The school is to the right, the mill in the background, and part of the southern end of the garden is in the foreground. The “Garden House” was behind me when taking this view,
Garden House
This is an afternoon shot of the cabin, the only view with the luxury of sunlight on it. It hasn’t been many years since this cabin was moved here.

Looking southwest at the cabin in the morning.

Here is a head on shot looking south at the little cabin nestled under the trees. Tomorrow we will take a look at the pioneer garden which is to the left just out of sight in this photo.

Another View of the Pioneer Garden
Looking the opposite way from near the summer kitchen of “Lower Residence” toward the south-southwest. The school can be seen left of center and somewhere among the trees to the right of center is the garden house.
Stone Arch Entrances to the Garden
My favourite view of the garden entrances. This is looking west from the walkway between “Upper and Lower Residences”.
