The local historical society has shared some old photos from our township. I picked out these two.
Above is a hotel which would be our neighbor if it hadn't burned many years ago. Notice the little house to the right of the hotel? That's our home.
Here's the view out my window of The Meeting House.
Here's how it looked in an undated photo. Those cattle would have been in a pasture next door to us.
How times change.

...I like term "meeting house!"
What was the meeting house? It looks like a religious building - maybe Society of Friends (Quakers)?
Oh how fortuitous to have lost that hotel, so that you could live in the charming house!
How times change indeed. I was looking at some historical photos of my own village yesterday and couldn't even work out the location of some of them. That's a very charming little meeting house. Is it still in use?
Never hear about "Meeting House" before. It is nice that they share an interesting history with you.
How delightful to see the past right around you like that.
So charming.
Love those cows!
I am not familiar with the word "township". How is it different from a town?
