If you’re in the area, visit Shaker Village

Just a heads up.. if you’re in the area… (the central Kentucky area)

This weekend (19th – 20th) is the Antiques Show and Sale at Shaker Village of Pleasant Hill

Shaker Village is a beautiful historical site in Central Kentucky. We try to go there once a year or so, it’s beautifully preserved…
I went to the Antique Show 2 years ago and had a great time.  Lots of beautiful things.  If you go, take a lunch, the restaurant there is wonderful but was packed that day, and know it’s more of an antique show than a craft show.
It’s worth it just to view the grounds, here are a few shots from 2 years ago:
They have the most beautiful curved staircase in the main building.  One of only 2 in the US from what I understand (the other being in the Manti LDS Temple).
If our schedule stays clear (here’s keeping my fingers crossed) I’m going to go down this weekend, to shop and to take more photos..
I painted this one this year…
Which I actually managed to sell! (*gasp*)… I had so much fun painting it I’m going back to take more pictures… I see a painted Shaker Village in my future…
