A bit of color in Beaverville, IL. #rurex #oldtrucks #missouri #wander Papineau grade school. It sold for $35,000 a few years back. I'm hoping someone loves it. I do have a soft spot for a good grotto. Little French-Canadian town in Illinois. Four nuns came from France in the 1890’s. The first novitiate from the area joined them but was sent to Lourdes due to ill health. She felt it healed her and when she came back she had a grotto built based on the one at Lourdes. Ok, I couldn't help myself. I had to post another shot of this. I guess that little hole beneath the empty sign is where you crawl in. Ok, I'm afraid this one doesn't go into my collection of little buildings because I don't know if we could fight those vines to get in. Another for my small building collection. I love those old burglar alarms...and that beautiful stone. Another little building for other little building lovers. It was a grey day but we had a lovely wander. Thank you, Saint Anne, Illinois. I will always be a sucker for little buildings. I see one and I just want to move in, fix it up and be cozy. Or maybe @boo_ia and I will start our business there and she can sell her baked goods. Always good to remember. Things are OK. Keep it in perspective. The Prairie Dell meeting house. An awfully charming little church out in the country of east central Illinois. It hosted a variety of different preachers and congregations---Quakers, Methodists, Catholics, Cambellites, United Brethren and Baptists. I must go back and visit this on a blue sky day. Beautiful old Catholic church in the minuscule town of L'Erable. Oh, Illinois, sometimes I just like you. I'm discombobulated today but all is right with the world because the @pendulum show in London was fantastic. At least that's the report from Leo and I just couldn't be happier. He flies back tomorrow. Can't wait to have him here in Illinois but wish he could stay longer with Tal. ❤️ Sometimes a drive in the country is just what you need. From a few years back, somewhere near Independence, Indiana. I always think of my mother when I see a cardinal. She loved them. The old sign is there but the restaurant is new and a cavernous space with a buffet. It wasn't what we were looking for for our breakfast, so we went along our way, happy to have seen the cardinal. It looks like one house was moved to expand the other one, doesn't it? Sometimes I don't even recognize the old me. I remember that girl. It's funny, she had both more confidence and less confidence than I do now. So terribly, terribly sad to hear this Harlowton, MT building was destroyed by fire last night. A beautiful old grange in Maine. We drove by in 2021. #timehascometoday FitzHenry's Store, Cutler, Maine I had a quiet year here in 2022. Hopefully more in 2023! I do love #oddfellows signs. ❤️ #mailpouch #ghostsign #smalltown #rural #illinois #mainstreet St. Elmo is venerated as the patron saint of sailors and abdominal pain. Hopefully the people of St. Elmo, Illinois don't have abdominal pain. I wouldn't think there were too many sailors there but you never know. The cars, the building, the windows. I just love all of it. What a delightful sign. We were quite smitten with Pittsfield, Illinois. New tires for the little guy.
