So, this is a miniature version of the town of Oderin. Oderin was a small outport fishing town. In the 60's, a premier named Joey Smallwood instituted a program called "resettlement" to move people from towns like this to larger towns where it was easier for the government to provide electricity and other services. People actually moved their houses (towed on rafts behind boats or across the ice). In the town of St. Mary's, a former resident of Oderin recreated a scale model of the town beside the highway. Pretty cool.

| Outhouse | This one is sideways, but it's also a little profane, so it all works out |

Dana: I like your pictures. I have taken some winter shots you can see on my facebook page. I have linked to your blog. Hope that's okay. https://www.facebook.com/bonnie.james.92
