interest in Shaker village trip report?

Which village did you go to? I have been to Pleasant Hill and thought
it was an excellent time. Lots of shaker designs to check out!

I have visited all the "Shaker" sites across the country. Pleasant
Hill is my favorite! Please post some pictures.

I would enjoy seeing a report. We visited Hancock Shaker Village, in
the Berkshires, several years ago and really enjoyed that. If only they
would have produced offspring to carry on the tradition.

Hokay, I'll get to work on it. Need to get my impressions down on paper,
anyway. Dropping the pics off tonight; take a little while to get 'em off
the CD and into an approved size... 1024x768, 24bits/pixel, right? ;D

(Pleasant Hill, BTW, with a whistle stop at South Union, cuz Mammoth Cave
took way longer than we figgured.)
