My traveling companion – who’s Not From Here – suggested a u-turn to get this photo. I did not argue since he was right.
Because I *am* From Here, there’s a good possibility that I wouldn’t have really noticed the photographic possibilities the way he did. Which just goes to show…something? That I am largely unobservant? Or that new eyes see new things? Probably the first of those two things, if I am being honest.

Carr’s Chapel, 1914
We took a meandering drive the other day and happened across this tiny roadside church. If the plaque on the door is correct – and why wouldn’t it be? – the church has been there for 106 years. That’s a long time for this part of the world.
