Stevens: It like a living history museum, with a general store, a church, a fish store, a schoolhouse, and a clam factory, says Stevens, according to The Chronicle Herald. They’re all real, rescued buildings that were moved here, and everyone dresses in 1940s attire, so it a neat spot. But unlike other historical recreations that take you back to the 1800s, Memory Lane focuses on what it was like to live in Nova Scotia in the 1940s. Lunch is served family-style in a cookhouse, as sheep, chickens, and barn cats mill around the property. Most of us weren’t alive in the 1940s, so it exotic for families to see what it was like in that decade, says Stevens. You can learn about gold-mining or boat-building, and check out vehicles of the era like a 1948 International pick-up and a 1949 Farmal Cub Tractor.
