Vermont Marble Museum, Proctor Vermont July 2011

There are several huge marble mining quarries in the New England areas.  Everything from sculptures to tire curbs, sidewalks to road curbs, buildings and even street cobble stones and more, are made from marble in this part of the country.  We visited the museum and the city of Proctor.  The marble city was beautiful.  Every city we have been in at least has marble or granite curbs in places!
