I had no idea! How come all the important and interesting people lived up in your neck of the woods? I guess they still do! :-)
Beautiful spot, Brattcat and a great photo!

This is so lovely! Wonderful shot!
Very beautiful garden. I think I remembered reading that Robert Todd Lincoln lived in Manchester (who wouldn't want to live there) and that he was a railroad lawyer like his father.
Excellent shot, interesting pearl of history. A great gift indeed...
What a gorgeous spot. I think I could spend hours here finding things to photograph.
A simple but very moving place, full of love and history..Your picture is looking like a painting..
Very interesting ;)
Its a amazing story...
But for me its a WONDERFUL garden!
:)
Thanks for the historical connection to the garden.
lovely.
Another 'painterly' and beautiful photo. Thank you for letting us visit this place.
How fortunate that the cake was as good as the view!!
Nice children it seems that it's a wonderful quiet retreat.
What an incredible birthday gift. She must have been thrilled. Are there caretakers there year round?
Very lovely with the Green Mountains in the background.
Sunny :)
