Hierarchy, chairs
Was there a reason the chairs increased in complexity from left to right? Or was it a coincidence?

Altar Screen
This was a rare treat – finding the tiny, ancient church in Truchas unlocked. The caretaker let us look around, and she gave us a bit of history of the place. This altar screen, for example, dates from the 1820s.
But the very best thing we learned is that she is the fifth generation of her family to serve as caretakers of the building.

Week of Randomness: Tracery
This image is the perfect one to end the Week of Randomness. Here’s why:
- On trip to England last year, we decided to drive from our rental cottage over to Oxford.
- The traffic was terrible, and we got tired of not getting anywhere.
- So we took the first turn we came to.
- And ended up in Cirencester.
- Where we spotted a steeple and then (somehow!) a car park that was adjacent.
- And right there, inside the church, is where we ran into some friends from Texas.
- Who had stepped into the church on a whim.
- Random!
(Never made it to Oxford. We’ll do that on the next trip. Maybe.)

Spreading gradually outward
The immediate neighborhood of this church had barking dogs, abandoned vehicles, and a bright turquoise house.
The church itself had a fence with a perfectly-placed* weed and the morning sun.

*Of course it was already stuck in the fence when we got there. It had been waiting on our arrival.
