With a little research I found St. Anne's Anglican Church in Madison, Ohio, with its 10 AM Service! We got there right before the service started:
And had nice chats with Pastor Kelly Irish both before and after the Service.
We got down to The Cleveland Museum of Art a little after 1, in plenty of time for our 2 PM tickets to the exhibition:
I LOVE the central courtyard at The Museum:
All the families come out to play at the museum on Sundays, and there was even a gondola for selfies!
I took photos of 28 pictures in the exhibition - my 5 favorite are:
Canaletto - The Procession on the Feast Day of Saint Roch, about 1735, National Gallery, London:
Michele Marieschi - Doge Pietro Grimani Carried into Piazza San Marco after His Election, about 1741, Galerie G. Sarti, Paris:
Canaletto - The Bucintoro at the Molo on Ascension Day, about 1745, Philadelphia Museum of Art:
Francesco Guardi - The Giovedi Grasso Festival in the Piazzetta, about 1775, Musee du Louvre, Paris:
Francesco Guardi - The Meeting of Pope Pius VI and Doge Paolo Renier at San Giorgio in Alga, 1782, Private collection:
As always, museum exhibition spaces are quite lovely and gracious:
Elsewhere in The Museum, it was WONDERFUL seeing two pictures which had not been On Display the previous 2 times I had been here.
Frederic Church - The Monastery at San Pedro (Our Lady of the Snows), 1879:
John Frederick Kensett - An October Day in the White Mountains, 1854:
As always, it is GREAT catching up with an old friend:
Albert Bierstadt, Yosemite Valley, 1866
Then a little over 2 1/2 hours to get east to Brookville, PA. Nice dinner at the Court House Grill & Pub, then bed at the Super 8.Thank you God for another GREAT Adventure DAY with my Wonderful Wife!
For my listening pleasure, I have been doing Shuffle Songs on my iPod. 17,869 songs:
Right now, I LOVE "Shuffle Songs"!! Whereas listening to an entire album of live Van Halen, or Acoustic Guitar, or live Bruce, or Miles Davis jazz or 1965 No. 1 Hits might be a bit too much (especially with Wendy, who doesn't like "messy jazz"), one-cut-at-a-time is JUST PERFECT.
and also Wendy read more of my book out loud:
