Where it’s always Christmas (even in April)
I am pretty sure you knew I’d try to find a window so I could see inside that church from yesterday.

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.

Cat on the Prowl
That big cat is just clawing the place to pieces, isn’t it?

End of the Line
This used to be a fancy hotel, with conference and banquet rooms and an atrium and all that stuff. A few years ago, we spent the night there when the dust from a home renovation project got the better of us, and it was clear that it wasn’t the place we remembered. The best amenity we got then were what I called “exfoliating towels” which were made (I am almost positive) from sandpaper.
And the slide down continued, and now, here we are: it’s being demolished. No word on what’ll be taking its place.
