Notes

  • -  Index data: 1-4, Too dark; 5-6, Farm building complex across a meadow, set in a stand of oak. Off Route 70 north of Medford, near Kirby's Mill G-Kirby's Mill; 18GT; 7, Small house hidden by trees, by Highway 606 where it crosses route 541, G-Kirby's Mill; 18GT. This is one of the common types of settings for older homes throughout the central region of the Pines; 8, A roadside sign on G-Kirby's Mill; 18GT Road advertises stewing chickens and chicken manure for sale. The home is smaller, older, and set further back in trees than those surrounding it: there are a number of new bungalow and designer homes along this stretch of road, while this house appears to belong to a family that has been here longer; 9-26: Shots of Jones & Son's geese yard, where geese and chickens are raised. The house is just beside the yard. Mr. Jones Jr. and Sr. are busy with evening chores among the geese, and a black Labrador puppy leaps enthusiastically in his area of the yard. G-Kirby's Mill; 18GT 27-30, A teenage boy and girl take a wheeI barrow of hay to one of the family horses just before sunset, at a relatively new home across the road from Jones's Farm G-Kirby's MiII; 18GT. Their motorboat and pickup truck, in the driveway, are shown in 30. The horse barn is new and rather self-consciously painted the traditional red with white trim: it looks as if it has been buiIt in imitation of traditional New England barns rather than according to the aesthetic and structural rules used IocaIIy.
