Here is the church and here is the steeple...

May Challenge: memories

This church reminds me of my grandparents' church, the church I grew up in
and the one that I was married in. So many memories to choose from...
I used to go with my grandparents to their church occasionally.
Grandpa always had butterscotch candies in his pocket for us.
We called them "butterballs".

Note: This church is very old. The present steeple was built in 1860.
Yes, it does lean towards the rear of the building.

First Presbyterian Church in Victor, NY

Wonderful memory. And this church has a "special feature." Good, crisp photo. The flag is a nice feature. Deep blue sky. Around my home town a white church with tall steeple was usually Congregational.

Great shot, much better than the long distance one I took. Very sharp and great colors.

Open the doors and see all the people! We played that when I was little a lot too! I love your story...my grandpa gave us Wrigley's Spearmint Gum. Every time I have a piece I think of him. This is a beautiful composition and a beautiful church. I love this!

Very beautiful church with traditional lines. Love the blue sky and American flag too. P.S. We called 'em butterballs too.
