Scenes in Stephenson and Middleburg.

Inspired Sunday: This is a Pentecostal Holiness Church called Word of Life Ministries. It's in Stephenson, a small town north of Winchester.


Also in Stephenson is this post office. Below the American flag they are flying the POW-MIA flag to commemorate prisoners of war and soldiers missing in action. Flying this flag became standard in late 2019. 

I am still taking post office pictures to honor our postal service. Today we drove through Middleburg so I stopped to get a picture of their post office. It's a distinguished brick building partly hidden by shrubbery. It's on the main street (US Route 50) near shops and restaurants. 

Below are two scenes I photographed near the post office. The town has a small population but a bustling business area due to its location and a glamorous reputation from a long association with celebrities including Jackie Kennedy and Elizabeth Taylor.
Weekend Reflection.

  4. Love the red brick building I see in the first picture. The door of the Middleburg's post office is also beautiful. Nice village, although its small population.
    Have a nice week.

  7. What a great idea to take photos of post office buildings! I hope the concerted attack on the efficiency of the US Postal Service will be stopped soon. Trying to prevent people from voting is bad enough -- but the postal service does a lot more than just deliver ballots!

    be well... mae at maefood.blogspot.com
