I was thinking of ...Rachel, as usual says it best. I was thinking of all the loving hands, and probably sacrifices made that went into every one of these beautiful houses of worship. I seem to be partial to the smaller ones, as well as the "down and outters." Have noticed in our travels that the Episcopal churches are always so well maintained and have such character.Marlenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09292354710015395886noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3809056835301186628.post-54338058957386419132010-11-10T14:24:28.692-06:002010-11-10T14:24:28.692-06:00Awesome pictures...

And didn't know about the one on the Gulf Coast. <br /><br />Also, your post below about the pansies and snapdragons motivates me!

The TWO steeple-rooms---I doubt there were two stories, but I'll bet there was an echo in those tall chambers---and the screen-porch and the big old concrete block supports. <br /><br /> Those say Mississippi of days gone by, and the DOUBLE screen-doors, sagged from their years of ushering in the Faithful---those doors say, "Y'all COME RIGHT IN!!"RachelDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11204947567574886675noreply@blogger.com
