Twisted Candles at the Green Center

The daily picture theme for November 11, 2025 is #knicknack. Our recycle center which we have named "The Green Center" is the place to find every imaginable variety of knicknacks and other useless objects. I don't even know where to begin.

The Little Red Schoolhouse

Image
The Little Red School House located in New Canaan, CT was Connecticut's last operating one-room schoolhouse. My cousin's husband attended the school and took us for a tour in October of 2006. Opening its doors in 1868, this Carter Street treasure was Connecticut’s last operating one-room schoolhouse when it closed in 1957. Acquired by the Society in 2003, it was restored thanks to the generous support of Society members, nonprofit groups, former students and friends. Longtime Schoolmistress Mary J. Kelley, who studied there in the 1890s and went on to earn a teaching certificate, was a “loving but strict” presence there for 47 years. The Kelley family home is just a stone’s throw from her classroom. Like the Rock School, the small room centered around the pot-bellied stove, with rows of slanted desks screwed to the wood-plank floor. Some 30 children from first through fifth grades received instruction under the watchful eyes of Miss Kelley. Former students recall that...

The Samuel Tarbell-Ames House is one of the homes located in the National Register of Historic Places, New Ipswich Center Village Historic District.

Five Years Ago - 4th of July Pool Party

Image
"Summertime, and the livin' is easy Fish are jumpin' and the cotton is high Oh, your daddy's rich and your ma is good-lookin' So hush little baby, Don't you cry..." I created this blog as a narrative of moments in time over the years in pictures. This is only possible because digital photo files have accurate time stamps. Because of this I can confirm that Kathy was sipping a beer on her deck at 3:08:47 PM on July 2nd in 2011 when they hosted a Independence Day party. I named this blog Only a Picture Stops Time because it is a collection of stopped moments in time.
