In reply to Amy.Thanks, Amy. 20 years of saving and planning. It must have been a small congregation.

I apologize for being late here, John. I love your selections. Nice grave story and the quote. It took 20 year to build the chapel, wow…

In reply to Marsha.Coincidentally, I had a '57 Chevy that broke down in Minneapolis, in 1970. I sold it to the tow truck driver for a hundred bucks, and we were both happy. :-)

In reply to photobyjohnbo.I'm definitely a wimp. I don't think my 57 Chev had power steering. It got towed off by the city of Portland because it didn't run and I didn't get it fixed. What a wasteful but not mechanical girl I was.

In reply to Indira.Thank you. Frances Bavier was a talented actor who was a bit miscast in her later years, but she was a professional who did her job despite her differences with Andy Griffith. But that is a whole other story.

In reply to babsje.Thank you. St Malo Chapel is certainly beautiful. I plan to revisit Pinnacles for a closer view than on my first visit.

Hi John

Excellent topic this week, love it!

Aunt Bee’s grave? Oh my that pickle story! The Pinnacles is an excellent little-known park and it’s fascinating about the opened car hoods. Your photo and commentary about the Chapel of St. Malo brought goosebumps.

Apologies for being tardy in commenting on your great post. Usually I’m more timely!

Here’s my Lens Artists Odds and Ends topic offering.

Beautiful Great Blue Herons… Role Reversal?

Best,
Babsje

In reply to Marsha.I never had a steering wheel knob myself, and I was lucky in that I never had a car that didn't have power steering. I guess I'm a wimp. >grin<
