A piece of history...now gone!

This old landmark was the local post office and general store in Mt. Holly, Vermont, many years ago. It no longer exists, even in the form of this old ramshackle house. It was recently torn down as an eyesore and to open the land.

I remember my grandmother living here at one time. She lived here with her son and daughter-in-law in the late 1950's or early 1960's. We attended the local church (which recently burned to the ground this winter) just around the corner and would then go to grandma's house for Sunday dinner. I remember watching grandma wearing her apron and cooking in the kitchen. We have old home movies of us in front of that old porch waving like maniacs to the camera. It was a grand old house but nature eventually took over and now it's only a memory. Thank you, Grandma, for all the wonderful Sunday dinners.
