Beautiful Architecture

Beautiful architecture in the town square of Lima, Peru. The buildings surrounding the town square were amazingly beautiful.

Abandoned Sanctuary

This is the inside of an abandoned country church.  The church sits next to a cemetery.  

The interior seems to be in pretty good condition.  There was no information anywhere in or around  the structure indicating what church it was or the years it was active.

It must have been a sweet congregation.

Yankee Hill, Putman's Lock Grocery @ Erie Canal in Tribes Hill

This remnant of the glory days of the Erie Canal between Tribe's Hill and Amsterdam NY is a reminder of the days when there was thriving business along the canal.  

This is Putman's Lock Grocery store which boasted living quarters & rooms for rent.  The basement contained a tavern and the upper ground level sold goods needed by workers and travelers.

This is still a popular site for picnickers, small musical performances and those just wanting to be outdoors for a while.  The front faces what was the canal and the rear of the building faces the Mohawk River.

My heart is grateful:

for having the chance to be back where it's green and pretty, even if just for a few days
