Church along the Way....
None of my photos turned out today ... well, one kinda turned out, but it just wasn't anything at all remarkable.
So I'm posting a photo from yesterday when I was in the city. I drive past this beautiful Methodist church as I drive to my chiropractor (on the same street as the crayon-fence I posted yesterday). Reportedly this church also has a prayer labyrinth, but I haven't been able to locate it.
As I took this photo, I noticed that the chapel doors were open a smidge, and I could see blue stained glass through the crack. I wish I had the gumption to go in there and take photos on the INSIDE.

I love that style of architecture. It always looks cool and inviting!
It's known as Mission architecture: the white/cream stucco/adobe walls and the red tile roofs. The style was common around here in early California history and experienced a rebirth here just after World War II, when this church was built.
I lost some of the blue of the sky in bringing out the architectural detail; a more experienced photographer wouldn't have made that mistake, but I'm trying to learn from all my boo-boos. :)
I love that Mission style. Would love to poke my head inside. :-)
