How to get noticed
The population of this town is about 1,600 people. When we got there, we didn’t see anyone driving along the main street. Or any of the non-main streets. But then, when we stopped so I could get photos of this lovely old gas station, approximately 125%* of the town’s population drove by, very slowly. No one stopped to ask me what I was up to, but the Patient Spouse noted that all of them stared at me as they crept passed.

And, in the meantime, pigeons coo and swirl all around. And, in one case, get caught in the image.

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.
