Teeny Tiny Windows of a Teeny Tiny Church
(click to enlarge to see detail on darker window)
Last week as Hubs and I were ending a day of sightseeing off the beaten path we drove back to the interstate to head back home. We pulled off at the first rest stop and sitting just across the way was this little tiny church. The path from the rest stop back to the interstate had us passing it on the way to the entrance ramp. Hubs stopped so I could take a couple of pictures.
There was no sign and no explanation of why it was there. Perhaps just a calming respite for travelers on their continued journey. Except for a sky shot as we entered the interstate it was the last photo I took. Looking back, that somehow seems a fitting way to have ended the blissful day.

My husband and I sometimes happen upon little churches in the middle of nowhere too. It really is strange when there are no signs!
ReplyDeleteNice photo that seems to come out of Laura Ingalls' novels.
ReplyDeleteI love little churches like this that are obviously dedicated to worshiping God.
ReplyDeleteThank you for capturing it to share with us.
Carletta,
ReplyDeleteI spent some time browsing through your blog today. The photographs are very beautiful. You have quite a talent that the average person can only wish they had. I don't know how long you have been doing this as a hobby but you should consider framing them and selling them, or do you already do that?
Very nice,
-Bro
Lovely shot. So calm and restful.
ReplyDeleteYou have a talent not only for photography but for SEEING! So many people would have missed this. Thank you for sharing both of your talents.
ReplyDeleteLove these Superior Snaps! Thanks so much for sharing...
ReplyDeleteWhat a treat to find this church off the beaten path! Love the little windows...
ReplyDeleteSuch a peaceful setting.
ReplyDeleteLovely picture, Carletta!
How adorable!
ReplyDeleteBeautifully captured!
ReplyDeleteWhat a neat little find! I love when we stumble upon a jewel like this! I love the stained glass windows, too. Too bad there wasn't a sign or anything telling you the name of the church so you could look up the history of it.
ReplyDeleteA perfect place to stop rest and take that shot...
ReplyDeleteThank you Carletta for visiting me over at Wiggers World so often.. it realy nice to see your name in my comments... and it is alway my pleasure to stop by here. You have a very busy camera, and a great eye for the shot...
All the very best to you and yours
Tom
That's a cool picture. I love it. And knowing you I bet in a future post we are going to know exactly why that church is there :)
ReplyDeleteI agree with ilanadavita - Laura Ingalls definitely jumps to my mind when I see this. And I'm always a sucker for stained glass - lovely!
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute little church with cute little windows. Nice shot.
ReplyDeleteWhat a nice little white church...so rural and I am sure it has a rich history. Such a nice photo!
ReplyDeleteSpeaking of Lily and Lucy, where have my manners been. How are they doing my friend? :)
ReplyDeleteit doesn't look run down, so somebody nearby must know its story. it is cute: 'a little white church in the wildwood'.
ReplyDeleteDelightful find ... wonderful windows. Thanks for sharing ;-)
ReplyDeleteHugs and blessings,
how quaint . . .
ReplyDeleteIt sounds like the beginning of a poem. A teeny tiny church with teeny tiny windows.
If you want to wander down my road I’m home.
Lovely spot. I like teeny tiny even though I'm large.
ReplyDeletelovely scene
ReplyDeleteOh Mary, I never thought I would say a church was darling, but that one is. I would love to know the how come of this one...
ReplyDeleteCarletta, that is an adorable little church. And the windows too! Isn't it great how things to photograph just pop up before our eyes? :)
ReplyDeleteSo quaint. It would be interesting to know how/why one charming stained glass window remains...
