It's a damp, rainy, misty morning but I love misty mornings.
I made the short drive to Historic Halifax and took a few pictures.
This was the home of William R Davie a hero of the revolution.
The Eagle Tavern; I can close my eyes and imagine the energy here in the years proceeding the revolution.
The old jail complete with stocks.
This house is one of my favorites, The Sally-Billy house; it's original location was near my home when I had the old house. It would have been gone years ago if it hadn't been moved to Halifax and restored.
Beautiful, enchanting views all around, quiet and sleepy
and such a charming village.
Another tavern, the dwellings here are original to Halifax except the Sally- Billy which was brought here for restoration and protection.
I'll be back with more pictures and history; have a magical Saturday.
Great visit~ I can feel all the history~ just gives me goosebumps~

Wow...that's positively mesmerizing....It looks as though there's not a soul around - and that the original inhabitants could just walk back in any time. How I would love to see those places in person!! Thanks so much for sharing!! Smiles & Hugs ~ Robin
