Shaker Village of Pleasant Hill, Kentucky

Photos from my visit to the Shaker Village of Pleasant Hill, Kentucky. The design of the spaces (living and working) and tools was beautiful and, in fact, very much reminiscent of lean thinking ideas like 5s.

On this trip, I also visited the Abbey of Gethsemani (where Thomas Merton was a monk) and Louisville.
