The SSHED is a business accelerator providing a pathway for home based businesses to grow.
This photo was taken as part of the SSHED corporate video being produced by my client RidgeFilms www.ridgefilms.com.au and will be used as part of my presentation at the Sutherland Shire Business Development Week (BDW) www.shirebusiness.com.au/ in June on humanising the web and digital media strategy.
Larrabee's Point (VT) Warehouse (1823)
Image by origamidon
State Route 74, Shoreham, Vermont USA • The warehouse is owned by Mahlon and Gena Teachout who operate the "Carillon" tour boat around the southern end of Lake Champlain. The building, [now called Teachout's Lakeshore Store], along with a wharf, was constructed in 1823. – From steve-world.com, a fine link with some historical images, c.1860.
Shoreham is primarily an agricultural community of orchards, dairy and niche farms, and numerous commercial endeavors, as well as an increasing number of smaller home-based businesses. Shoreham is also home to the “Fort Ti” Ferry, one of oldest ferries in the US, in continuous operation between Shoreham and Ticonderoga, N.Y., since 1788. – From the Town's website.
From rootsweb, here's some background on John LARABEE came from New London county, Conn., in 1783, and settled on the farm now owned by Myron PLATT. He was a well-educated man, and a surveyor. His son, John S. LARABEE, came from Pownal, Vt., in 1783, at the age of nineteen years, and lived four years with his father, after which he cleared a place on Larabee's Point, then called Rowley's Point, where, with the exception of six years passed in Middlebury as clerk of the County Court, he remained the rest of his life. He established the first ferry at Larabee's Point, under legislative grant, and managed it during his life. He held at different times the office of town representative, clerk of the County Court six years, judge of probate and of the County Court. He died on November 28, 1847, aged eighty-two years.
