Visual Gratuitousness in New Town!


Rudy's Ribs & Barbeque ~ This image I shot last spring hung at our local college's student art exhibit for awhile. I love the colors here!


What is it about steeples that gives me that strange mysterious/intriguing/romantic feeling? I just love them... Maybe that is why I was so obsessed with Disney's Hunchback of Notre Dame when it first came out! lolMaybe those are more of towers than steeples.... oh well!



The front steps of the church in New Town. Take a look at the grain of that amazing door!









New Town at St. Charles is this unique, quaint, and beautiful community in St. Charles. It has this old-world feel, but has only recently been developed in the past 5 years or so. Some friends of ours were married there recently and we just really fell in love with it. Little shops, summer nights watching movies on the big outdoor screen in the amphi-theatre, canals, an organic farm, and a gorgeous chapel that I must say is one GORGEOUS wedding venue!

Southern Living featured a great article here, highlighting all the beautiful details of this sweet town. I wish I could post all the pictures I have, but this will have to do for now....

How would you like to LIVE somewhere like this?
