Sherbrooke Village

We stopped at a small village called Sherbrooke that has been preserved and restored. We've been to other colonial villages where the buildings are brought in from other areas, restored and assembled into a community, but this village is exactly the same as it was. The government started with a few homes on one street, and as private owners sold them over the years, the government bought them, preserved and/or restored and continued to "grow" the village. Buildings included the blacksmith, the general store, private residences of the rich and not-so-rich, etc.

We had our photo taken as an ambrotype - this process is similar to the old tintypes, but the photo on is etched on glass.

After leaving Sherbrooke, we completed the Marine Drive on the Eastern Shore, driving through some very interesting named towns.
