Beaver Lick Baptist Church


As promised, I have photographed the Beaverlick Church...not the Church of God, that one is farther down the road and I didn't have time to run down there last night...but the Baptist Church is at least as cool. And look! the Gallatin County Bluegrass band is going to be playing there!
I was trying to take a minute to stop and appreciate the beautiful weather last night on my way to a meeting. I have had no aptitude for joy the past few weeks, so I have to force myself sometimes. These are weeds, viewed from the window of the Windstar Family Carriage, in the lot behind the Speedway where I paid WAY too much for gas last night.

I think they are very pretty. Especially when the trash and stuff has been cropped out...maybe that's where my joy is hiding...behind the stuff I need to crop out. I need to upgrade my mental photoshop!

Now that I have figured out how to download the pictures from my camera to the computer, maybe I'll spend some time on photography. Not like I don't have seven thousand other things I should be doing, but there was a time when I really liked scrapbooking...and maybe that time can happen again...

I used to be into making photo essays. Maybe that is what I should try to do today. I have some fun series from the late eighties/ early nineties of St. Alphonso's...one year with T.Fox as the common element, another year with Gumby in all the shots...come to think of it, Gumby was in all my New Orleans pictures, too...I wonder what ever happened to old Gumby Dammit.

I think I'll make today's photo essay on 'finding out where my joy is hiding'
