the church was built in 1853 and burned down in 1912
it was rebuilt 1 1/2 miles away since the entire town had moved whn the railroad bypased the old town

1. What extraordinary photos, my dear moonshinegnomie!

The old church is wonderfully framed by the Milky Way. The details are easily seen, even though there isn't much light.

So beautiful.

Thank you!
