I am so lucky! by eudora

I am so lucky!

This is St. Paul Church in Bayou Goula, Louisiana, built in 1871. I photographed it in February: http://365project.org/eudora/365/2012-02-20. Today I was in the area, and there were people there, so I stopped and very tentatively asked if I could take a few pictures. They not only welcomed me and let me take as many photos as I wanted, but the man who lives next door took me on a tour of his historic home (beautiful!)

The building, heavily damaged by a hurricane, was about to be demolished when this nonprofit group bought and stabilized it. They are working to restore it, but it's slow going due to lack of funds....

That church is already lovely- it's going to be quite beautiful when it's completed. What a great time you had! Great photo!
