Photography News/ Nantucket is an island 30 miles (48 km) south of Cape Cod, Massachusetts, in the United States. Together with the small islands of Tuckernuck and Muskeget, it constitutes the town of Nantucket, Massachusetts, and the Nantucket County.
The island features one of the highest concentrations of pre-Civil War structures in the United States. It also has the oldest operating windmill in the United States (since 1746).
The Nantucket Historic District, comprising all of Nantucket Island, was added to USA's National Register of Historic Places 49 years ago today, on December 13, 1966.

For nearly twenty years, from 1900 to 1918, Nantucket was the only place in the nation that successfully fought encroachment of the automobile within its limits. Opposing politicians on the mainland and large property owners, mostly non-residents, Nantucketers kept the island free of the "gasoline buggy" until the final vote of the town on May 15, 1918. By the narrow margin of forty the automobile was allowed entry. Clinton Folger was the mail carrier for Nantucket. Because cars were forbidden by the town, he towed his car to the state highway for driving to Siasconset. Source: Nantucket Historical Association |

Such images make me feel nostalgic. Sort of sadness that all these places look so much different now.

Capabilities you should be met to concede credit installments. Exchanging to another school does not consequently mean you must begin reimbursement. For instance, Federal Stafford advances, and others, don't request reimbursement inasmuch as your are enrolled as a full-time or half-time understudy in any authorized school.
