Louisiana Dreamin' on Such a Winter's Day

"All the leaves are brown"...but the sky is blue...I feel safe and warm living in LA..."Stopped into a church I passed along the way"... I don't know what there is about this place, but I just love it. I can almost see the people from the past going in and coming out all dressed up in their Sunday finest. Marriages, Baptisms, Funerals. Love built this place, and it's soul seems to be resting, somewhere, waiting with the souls of those who had built her and worshipped here. They are not gone, not really, nor forgotten; not forgotten by their God, and neither is this building forgotten. It's a present, standing testament to the Faith and Hope of the people who raised her.

perhaps it could be renovated? People have renovated buildings in much worse condition.

Wow! I hadn't thought about that...wouldn't that be nice?? I just might look into it. Wonder if my son, Dan would wanna come back down and help again. Or get somebody interested who could really do a good job at it. Thanks for the idea.
