    Not a church that I have any personal connection with, other than riding bye it many times on one of the nicer roads nearby here.

    Stopped to get some flowers to take home for wifey. (I have found that simple flowers on random occasion for no big reason are appreciated more than expensive flowers on special-expected occasions. Well, that, and I was out later than expected har har har)
    The white of the building and the white of the fence and bucket got my attention, along with the steeple. SO took a picture.

    Picture is from 6 - 8 years ago. More recently I would have probably gotten a lower perspective to minimize how much of the frame is taken with parking lot pavement.

      A statue of Jesus in a cemetery here in town. The inscription on the base says "Come Unto Me".



      I wanted to get a few shots to choose from, but it started raining so this is what I got. My bike is sitting on a sidewalk, BTW.

          I had a picture I was going to use... it seems to be in digital purgatory. I then went to download it from my Instagram page.... and deleted it by mistake.. I'll take a look at what else I have.

              Found it!
              Agree with the sentiment that being on or with the bike is sacred time. The garage is a special place for me as well.
              This is from 2017 when the scooter was in the process of its going over.

                I was torn between a garage picture, a road picture, or a rally picture.

                    Y'all know I'm a Methodist preacher, so here's my bike "leading" a Methodist church. Lorentz UMC (not my church) on Rte 33 in Upshur County WV.

                      I figured a grave yard would be pretty close to hallowed ground, hence my entry this week. I mean with all the prayers being said and holy water being sprinkled on it, it made sense. Plus, our church is a pretty drab grey building, nothing fancy or too photogenic.

                      Not an entry, but here's a few bikes at Desert Springs Church last year. Bikes are cool, the building....not so much.

                        Theme is a place where you find to be Hallowed/Holy.. Will also accept churches or other places of worship or statues of any denomination. Maybe it is just a perfect view (like this) where ever you fell "hooked" in with the universe works.

                            I'm going to go with Eli's this week. Tough Call for I loved Trevor's shot however Eli's shot reminds me of a great ride out that way and those hills do sing (or Hum I guess).
                            Best,

                                I'm in for burque. I like how the front wheel is tucked behind Jesus. I find it inviting and peaceful.
