Across the street from the grist mill is the Martha Mary Chapel. New England has the most beautiful old chapels and churches I have ever seen.
It looks striking against the bright blue sky.
Again, Russell waiting patiently for me in the car. He was the smart one....he was nice and cool. I was sweating to death. 😎
There is also a very old schoolhouse next to the chapel. It's also known as the "Mary Had A Little Lamb Schoolhouse" as the rhyme was written here. I did not know that!!!!!!
I assume that's the outhouse but I didn't go look.
There is a metal plaque of an old reader book with Mary Had A Little Lamb.
I will have to go back in the summer and see if the building is open.
Indeed, I"m not a church goer, but I do love old churches. Looks like everything is well maintained. So fresh against lovely backdrops
ReplyDeleteI'm not a church goer either but I love to shoot architecture!
DeleteTwo years back my son went on a field trip to visit similar kind of one room school house.
ReplyDeleteDo you know Jojo, few days back we were on Bar Harbor, and I saw a beautiful glass piece on the beach, and your name came in my mind. :D
You were just in Maine? So cool!!! I hope you picked up the beach glass! Did you have fun?
