Who can name the house style on this Victorian beauty?
Perched on the highest hill in the coastal village of Noank, Connecticut, you will find this absolutely enchanting gingerbread Victorian mansion.
The house was built in 1884 for Deacon Robert Palmer (1825-1913), a wealthy man who wasn’t only deacon of the village`s Baptist church, he was the owner of a flourishing shipyard, and it was his shipyard workers who built him, with loving care, a house he could be proud of! Robert ran the shipyard in town first with his brother, and then with his son.
During the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries the shipyard was the largest facility for building and repair of wooden vessels in southern New England, employing over 300 men. The yard specialized in building railroad car floats, schooner barges, and dump scows as well as fishing smacks. Robert Palmer and Son went out of business in 1914 with the passing of the Robert.
The Stick style mansion with mansard roofed tower remained in the Palmer family until the early 2000s when it sold and was restored to her former glory. The residence features exposed rafters, a pagoda-like second story balcony, a frieze with geometric cut-outs, and a wrap-around porch which provides sweeping views of the ocean.
I can only imagine how beautiful this old Victorian is on the inside!

I found this 1968 postcard of the Steamship Sabino to go along with my recent purchase of a vintage felt pennant. Here’s some of the history that I shared on the previous post:
Sabino (pronounced Sah-BYE-No) is America`s oldest regularly operating coal-powered steamboat. It is one of only two surviving members of the American mosquito fleet and was declared a National Historic Landmark in 1992.
Sabino began her career in 1908 as "Tourist," a ferry owned by LaForest "Foss" Etheridge on the Damariscotta River in Maine. After sinking in 1918 and being salvaged, she was sold to the Popham Beach Steamboat Company on the Kennebec River in 1921 and renamed Sabino in honor of Abenaki sagamore Sabenoa.
Sabino was bought by Cape Shore Ferry Company in Portland, Maine, in 1927 and transported passengers to the Casco Bay islands. In 1935 she was sold to Casco Bay Lines. Still, she was put into the reserve fleet until 1956, when she was returned to ferry service due to another ferry accident.
In 1958, she was sold to Philip and Irene Corbin of Salisbury, Massachusetts. The Corbin family spent significant time repairing the vessel and bringing her up to Coast Guard regulations for a passenger`s vessel. In 1971, the Sabino was sold to C. Bruce Brown, Joseph Pulvino, and Philip Corbin`s son Jim, doing business as Steamship Sabino Inc.
The Sabino started operating on the Merrimack River on Memorial Day, running between Newburyport, Black Rocks in Salisbury Beach, and Merrimac. On high tides, it could reach Haverhill. Jazz cruises were available both day and night until 1974, when it was leased to Mystic Seaport Museum for a year to gauge interest.
During the voyage from Newburyport to Mystic Seaport, the Sabino was almost lost due to large waves that stirred up coal and blocked the bilge pumps, causing the engine room to flood. However, a gasoline pump kept her afloat, and she was pulled from the water in Groton, Connecticut. The Mystic Seaport shipyard experts restored her, and she became a popular exhibit, prompting the museum to purchase her. Under the museum`s care, Sabino was fully restored and continues to operate as a working exhibit, offering rides to visitors.
Every Wednesday we immerse ourselves in sound healing, sacred smudging and incredible energies that everyone bring. Join us this week starting at 7Pm on this sound journey and experience good night sleep after!

✨CT GAMERCON 2023✨
What a wild weekend! Our first time vending at a convention was a great time and learning experience.
A huge thank you to everyone who stopped by to purchase something or just chat 💖
Didn’t get photos of Day 1 setup, but this is from Day 2.
Learned how much to bring, what people gravitated to, etc.
This will info definitely help for future conventions 😉
Now comes the “fun” time putting things back in the shop and doing inventory 💀
When we practice a yoga posture designed to challenge our balance, the use of a gazing point or drishti is a most effective way to maintain physical equanimity. The act of gazing without judgment or attachment is easily the most effective way to bring stability and balance to the pose. Likewise, when the poses of life rob us of our equanimity, gazing at the situation without attachment—without judgment—is the most effective tool we have to restore the mind to harmony. — Darren Main

We are beyond excited to be welcoming Chef Victoria Blamey to our kitchen on April 30th for our Kelp! dinner in celebration of the New England kelp harvest week.
Dubbed by New York Times Food Critic, Pete Wells as "a chef worth following", Chef Blamey opened MENA in 2022, which was recognized as one of the NYT Best Restaurants 2022, and by Esquire Magazine as one of the best new dining destinations in the country.
Born and raised in Santiago, Chile, chef Blamey has spent years traveling, learning, and cooking in celebrated kitchens around the globe; working side by side with living culinary legends like Wylie Dufresne, Paul Liebrandt and Matt Lightner. She pulls from years of global travel and is guided by her commitment to underrepresented voices, values and sources to offer a creative new beginning. Her cooking style? - she describes as “with a sense of consciousness, but also with a lot of fun”.
MARK YOUR CALENDARS! Tickets for our kelp dinner will go on sale MARCH 30th at 12:00P.
