St. Peter's Village is a small community with Victorian homes built in the 1860s. Iron Mines, near French Creek National Park, helped start this small community.
In 2003 St. Peter's village was placed on the National Register of Historic Places.
Which is significant because ordinances prevent new construction in and around the village.
Todd and I stopped at the local bakery. It smelled wonderful!
I got an Apple-Cranberry Tart. It was delicious!
On the way back we stopped at an antique shop. I loved the row of quilts on display.
Thanks for stopping by! I hoped you enjoyed the tour.
Thanks for stopping by my Blog and for recommending it to others.
ReplyDeleteYour city looks like a wonderful place, especially that bakery. I bet your apple-cranberry tart was yummy. I love shopping at antique shops. So many treasures to be found.
Looks beautiful! I'd love to take a walk around there with a stop in that bakery!
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by my blog today! I loved checking out your lovely blog too!
what a great tour! The bakery shots made my tummy growl!
ReplyDeleteI got the "antique shopping" from my grandparents. They would spend every weekend going to flea markets.
ReplyDeleteIt was a nice day, especially since I spent it with my hubby!
ReplyDeleteThere was so many desserts to choose from. I want to go back just to try another dessert! :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a cool place to visit!
ReplyDeleteMmmmm...apple cranberry!
ReplyDeleteI love to walk around old villages. The main streets are always so intriguing. Thank you for sharing you walk and dessert. Could I get a second bite.
ReplyDeleteThe weather was nice too.
ReplyDeleteThere was plenty to share! =)
ReplyDeleteIt was yummy!!
ReplyDeleteLooks like a slice of Heaven -- the pie and the town.
ReplyDeleteHappy Sunday!

It was a nostalgic step back into time. Happy Sunday to you too.
ReplyDeleteWhat an adorable village... and those baked goods! Love to see these historic sites being protected. Enjoy your Sunday :)
ReplyDeleteAll those bakery goodies look amazing.
ReplyDeleteWow, that looks really great! Places like that are always worth visiting! Did you snatch up anything at the antique store?
ReplyDeleteI live near Philadelphia so there are a lot of historic sites where I live.
ReplyDeleteToo bad you can't smell the aroma. =)
ReplyDeleteI did! It was a german pot that they would pour pancake batter out of. You'd never know that is what they used it for. It looks like a huge water jug with a tea pot like handle.
ReplyDeleteHi Tami! Great to hear from you.....I love this post!!! I don't know where you are from but I want to see this sweet village!! Those quilts are beautiful on that clothesline! Funny, how I posted
ReplyDeleteabout a historic area too.....our minds were on the same page??!! Have a wonderful week! Roxie
love small towns... which is probably why I live in one. You can't construct anything new in our downtown core either. and many homes are "heritage homes" since we are back to about 1860 as well - at least that is when the established logging industry was settled - but there were others here prior to that date. And I really want some of that pie. :)
ReplyDeleteLooks like a fun trip, Tami. I can practically taste that apple-cranberry tart!
ReplyDeleteThose goodies in the bakery look awesome, but as a quilter, my attention was caught by those antique quilts! ;-)
ReplyDeleteHi Tami, I love the subjects you pick to photograph.. the colours are brilliant!
ReplyDeleteU always carry a camera everywhere you go? never done that, maybe I should, nice to take everyday stuff..

I love the quilts. Great post. So glad I got to tag along.
ReplyDeleteMy mother-in-law quilts, so I always think of her when I see them displayed.
ReplyDeleteI love the quilt shot! I've never heard of pomegranates on a pie before, but Kendall and I love 'em, so I'd love to try a piece!
