I took these pictures of the Federated Church in Edgartown in May one evening around 6pm.  The light through the windows was at a perfect angle to illuminate the inside of the church with a warm golden glow.

“This 1828 meetinghouse, on the corner of South Summer and Cooke streets, is the oldest church building in its original location still used for worship on the Vineyard and has had few changes made. It features box pews; graceful woodwork; a Hook and Hastings organ, which was installed in 1895 in a case built in 1840 by Ebenezer Goodrich, and restored in 1985; a handsome chandelier which originally burned whale oil; and an 1853 Ingraham clock. The sanctuary, which is acoustically ideal, seats nearly 400 persons within 40 feet of the pulpit. The building is inspirational, a tribute to its designer.”

You’re a grand old flag,
You’re a high flying flag
And forever in peace may you wave.
You’re the emblem of
The land I love.
The home of the free and the brave.
Ev’ry heart beats true
‘neath the Red, White and Blue,
Where there’s never a boast or brag.
Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
Keep your eye on the grand old flag.

(words by George M Cohan)

Just for the fun of it try guessing where some, or all, of these seats are.. leave your answers in ‘comments’.  :)   Hint:  All seats are on Martha’s Vineyard.

The Flying Horses weren’t open while I was on the Vineyard last month. Sigh  :(

Didn’t mean I didn’t get a picture of them.   I positioned my camera close to the window and clicked…

I got the horses… I also got the reflection of the camera and the reflection of the building across the street.  Neat huh.
