There was a time, early in my career, when I thought that the field of city management seemed particularly interesting and worth pursuing. I think I started to rethink that position when the city manager told me that a gentleman here in Lubbock phoned him every morning that the garbage truck woke him up. “I’m awake and you should be, too.” was the message every time.
But I still notice city halls when I travel.

Someone thought the crumbly brick wall around a cemetery needed a little bit of a sermon, I guess.
And I thought I needed to stomp through the roadside weeds to get a photo of it.

According to the sign, Sunday School was supposed to be in session. The Patient Spouse and I (plus a dog that seemed to live in an adjacent cemetery) were the only ones in attendance and none of us were prepared to give a lesson.
So I made some photos, the dog returned to the shady spot he’d emerged from, and the PS and I drove onward.

If you combine a series of country roads, each one smaller than the one before, and a sign that indicates a church down a narrow lane, I will check it out every time. It’s just a thing I do.
