On Saturday evening, we were traveling to eastern New Hampshire to look at homes the next day. Approaching Concord, we discovered signs for a Shaker Village and followed. What we found was the Canterbury Shaker Village. We arrived just before sunset, after the tours had ceased and the village was closed. Just the two of us, walking through the pristine architecture and unbelieveable setting, was the most calming experience. Though the architecture is geometric and precise, the layout of the village seemed somewhat organic and very welcoming. We'll go back for a tour so that we can experience the ultimate in economic design and minimal beauty, but for now, here's what we saw from the outside...
