December 15-Old First Church, Bennington, Vermont

The Old First Church was gathered on December 3, 1762, the first Protestant congregation in the New Hampshire Grants. The organizers were Separatists, influenced by the Great Awakening, from Connecticut and Western Massachusetts, and were proprietors of the new finding land and opportunity in the new town of Bennington. 

I went to Bennington College in the early 2000s and I loved every moment of soaking up the history of beautiful places like this. It also happens to be where the poet Robert Frost is buried.

About The Postcards Collection

I've always loved postcards and the idea of sharing a small window of your experience with someone far way. I thought it would be fun to create little postcards for myself of the special places in my life to remember something personal about the place, not necessarily recognizable like a landmark but something truly unique to my experience that I always want to remember or that I want to share with my friends, family and collectors.
