St Padre Pio Shrine by hjbenson

St Padre Pio Shrine

Had to go to the dentist today. On the way there and home, I pass the St. Padre Pio Shtine on US 40 in Buena Boro. In reading discussions, it was suggested to put up some photos of your area that a tourist would be apt to take even though they seem common to those who live there.

To see my other photo for today http://365project.org/hjbenson/others/2012-01-09

@seattle Thank you Constance, it was set up well; no a crown fell off and has to be replaced
@jeancarl Thank you Jean, I wanted to just get the shrine and not any of the parking area
@mummymorris Thank you Janet, it was the sky that made me decide to stop today :)

Very interesting. It took me a while to see the size perspective - I presume the benches are 'normal' size.

@eleanor Thank you Eleanor, yes they are - I was trying to keep the out buildings out of the photo

Hmmmm, makes me think I need to drive out to Portage De Sioux and take a picture of the shrine out there.... I already have pics of The Arch in my project,

I like this, it's very aesthetically pleasing.
