Travel: Shaker Village Buildings, 1 of 3 2025-06-22 - Harrodsburg, KY - Photo by Robert Ellis, robertelliswoodworking.com. Robert writes, "In my opinion, the main attraction at Shaker Village is the structures. Having jumped the gun by coming up early on Friday, and with no antique vehicles on display for the Vintage Dad's Day until Saturday, I focused my attention on photographing just them. On the plus side there were very few people touring the grounds, that allowed for taking photos at a slower pace. In this photo I just took my time and waited for these pair of ducks to pose in front of the building."
