No Cooks
Since 1855, the church has held the Feast of the Assumption each year on August 15. On the day I was there, it was hard to imagine what that must look like, with thousands of people showing up for the festivities.

Church/Reflection
The church here in Praha is impressive (come back in a few days and you’ll see what I mean!), but the church grounds held their own appeal. It’s clear that an annual church picnic was a big deal, even though on the day I was there a cold wind made being outside particularly unpleasant.
But there was this nice reflection of the church in the window of the community hall.
Also, according to the picnic report posted on the church’s website, the profit from last year’s picnic was just shy of $163,000. (To put a little perspective on it, the town of Praha has no actual residents.)

Weariness of travel
Remember the other day, when I said I didn’t make pictures of people, unless I did make pictures of people?
Same, here.

No reason, maybe, for pink
From a distance, looming through the fog, we could see that pink rectangle. Gradually its building started to appear.

A lot of people live here
In 2015, I took a trip to Nova Scotia, and posted some of the photos when I got returned. A lot of them, though, were held back for a project that I was working on. That project is (I think)(I hope) about done, which means there is a whole set of NS images still to be posted.
And here’s one, a three-shot pano of Hillcrest Cemetery in Lunenberg.
