An enclosed front porch and a carriage house:
Back on Route 11C, a big Protestant Church:
I turned onto Factory Street and drove past this home with a front porch:
And this home with a windmill and solar panels:
And another home for sale, though when I searched for the listing online, it was gone. Maybe it had been already sold:
A lovely colonial home:
And across the road from the last four houses was this huge yogurt factory. I still remember how shocked I was when I first saw it as it seemed so out of place in this tiny hamlet:
This is North Country Dairy, a larger yogurt manufacturer. It was closed when I first moved to the area, then taken over by a farm cooperative and now it's making and selling yogurt once again under a variety of labels:
I heard on the radio that North Country Dairy just signed a contract with a big, national yogurt label and that would bring more new jobs to this small town. The name of the yogurt brand, however, had not yet been published:
I headed back to the center of town and passed by the Grapevine restaurant. I've never been in it, but they often have banners out front which advertise catfish dinners:
And across the street, "The Jug," a tavern:
The North Lawrence Post Office:
And the North Lawrence Supermarket with the yogurt factory in the background. I have been in there and found nearly empty shelves:
And the last photo of my driving tour was the Pit Stop Restaurant. I have eaten there and fondly remember their maple cream pie, made with local maple syrup:
