In Canterbury, NH there is a stronghold left of a Shaker village. I know they are all dead, but still somehow they survive..in an abandoned shed I found these bottles they had imported from Saratoga NY ..the angle is true..the barn is slanted as is the shelf they were on..and I know this group has a tie to that NY connection...I was mystified..and when that happens, I take pics.

I love the lighting. The shot is so clear, I can see the dirt on the windowpanes! I didn't know there was a Canterbury, NH, but I am drawn to places by that name. They do have a magical, mysterious character about them. A great find.

You will be led to the knowledge of the internal things which are invisible to you, by the external things which you see before you. . . . Even so then, we can represent to ourselves in thought the Author of all that is, by contemplating and admiring the (visible) things which He has made, and ever brings into being. - Hermes

They aren't dead! They joined up with the movers. Nice bottles...I don't eat or drink blue stuff.

I hold it true that thoughts are things; They're endowed with bodies, breath and wings: And that we send them forth to fill the world with good results, or ill. That which we call our secret thought speeds forth to earth's remotest spot, leaving it's blessings or it's woes like tracks behind it as it goes. We build our future, thought by thought for good or for ill, yet know it not. Yet so the universe was wrought . Thought is another name for fate. Choose then thy destiny and wait, for Love brings Love and Hate brings Hate. - Henry Van Dyke.
