Happy EASTER
Bonnet from Sammy and Andy. She absolutely loves it!!! Thank you very much you two are this lady cat's Meow!!!
This little bunny sits outside our front door (at least that is what Mom says, I've never been out there). Our periwinkle is blooming now so we wanted to share this picture with you.
Highland United MethodistRidge Road, Raleigh NC
This is a very majestic steeple (with an interesting past**)..(you may click to enlarge).
It has several shapes and angles of wood on it. I especially like the angled wood in the middle section. The church chimes are more than likely in the first wooden section. Notice the venting.

The cross at the top seems to be about to catch a cloud
This picture was taken across the street standing on the playground of an
elementary school. All the pictures were take on the same day notice how the clouds came and went. The formation of the church was approved on January 14, 1954. Its first service
was held on May 2, 1954 in Francis Lacy Elementary School across the street.
Regular services were held at the school until January 1958.
**As you can see from these pictures, this steeple is very high. The steeple has had an
interesting past. At approximately 5:48pm on June 19, 1977 after striking the steeple a private plane crashed into the front yard of a home a block away from the church. No fire was reported at either the crash site or church. The aircraft was returning from a brief flight to Durham
(~30miles from Raleigh) when radio communication was lost at 5:10. Unfortunately the pilot did not survive. Miraculously no one on the ground was hurt. The church sits on a
very busy corner in the midst of a neighborhood and there is an elementary school across the street.

You might have noticed the steeple is in 3 sections.
Mom and Dad were passing by this church. Mom was absolutely astounded when she noticed the top portion is missing. There have been NO accidents reported like on June 19, 1977. Obviously it would take a huge crane to get it down. We are clueless as to how something this large could disappear.
C(at) S(leuth) I(nvestigator) will have to look into this mystery.
Hi Madi & Mom,
ReplyDeleteMadi, you look so enchanting in your lovely Easter bonnet. The pretty purple makes your green eyes look even more beautiful.
That church steeple is amazing and really high. Looking at the utility poles and roof it makes you realize the height of the structure.
You mean since you took the photos the top of the steeple has been remeoved? How strange, we look forward to the CSI investigation results.
Hope you are having a great Easter weekend,
Judy & Cindi Lou
