Downtown Granby, Vermont was bustling with activity when I took this photo. The three buildings shown are a chapel/church, a Post Office, and the Town Clerk's office. There also is a schoolhouse just beyond the bend in the road. The town was chartered in 1761, had a population of 52 in 1970, and exploded to 84 as of the 2017 census. Granby was the last of two towns in Vermont to be hooked up to the electric grid, which occurred in 1963.
I saw only one car in the half hour I was at this location. They smiled and waved as they passed. Most of the residents in these small rural towns throughout Vermont and New Hampshire are very friendly. However, that may not be the case in the bordering town of Victory, which I drove through to get to Granby. Victory has a population of 62 as of the last census, and is known for its decades long "Hatfield versus McCoy" type feuds, keeping the local county sheriff busy. Just Google "Victory Vermont feud" for details. Maybe they are friendly to outsiders like me though. I don't know, as I saw no one at all in my drive through Victory. I suspect they may be afraid to go outside. By the way, Victory was the second of the last two towns in Vermont to be hooked up to the electric grid.
This scene looked to me like it was out of the 1800's. Even the main road through town is unpaved. So I thought it was appropriate for a black and white photo.

Built in 1877 in the "Second Empire" style, the Chippewa County Courthouse was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1984. This architectural style, with a mansard roof and square-based tower was common in the 1800s.
John Scott, the architect, designed this building, giving it two-foot thick stones walls, and a tower that is fronted by a statue of "Justice".
Seen at Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan.
Part of the Mississippi Blues Trail, The Blue Front Cafe was established in 1948 and was famed for its buffalo fish, blues and moonshine whiskey. Jimmy Holmes youtu.be/kPUiM1xulxE?list=FLLvZ2p0WCp744eYV5yq-D0g took over the cafe in 1970 and continued a tradition of down home Mississippi Blues.

Splendido esempio di architettura medievale, il palazzo del Bargello fu sede del Capitano di Giustizia e teatro di molte vicende storiche. Oggi il palazzo del Bargello ospita uno dei più importanti musei fiorentini, il Museo Nazionale in cui sono custodite importanti sculture del Rinascimento, tra le quali capolavori di Donatello, Ammannati, Giambologna, Verrocchio, Cellini, oltre a varie opere di Michelangelo.
