One last time....

It's been cold again the last few days. I decided to use up the rest of the few logs I had left to take advantage of the cold for one last night with the fireplace! It's wood-burning, no gas, and I was so proud of my little fire that I had to take a picture! Hopefully, Spring will arrive for real now, and the fireplace will rest until the fall.

Home of the Eagles.....

Central High School has been providing education for Omaha Public Schools since 1859. This school is near downtown and right across from the Joslyn Art Museum, whose doors I showed the other day. My sister studied here, but I went to a different high school. However, I have always loved the building.

Happy Easter!!

Happy Easter everyone!!! For Easter, I thought that I would show the doors to my own church! We are a relatively small church, started about 7 years ago. Core Community is the name, and you can find the link to the church website in the sidebar. We meet in the Omaha Community Playhouse.

A little more than the doors...

This is quite a bit more than just the doors....but I like the view of the whole church. This is the First Presbyterian Church close to downtown. I will have to find out how many churches we actually have here, but I seem to see one on almost on every corner. Many of them are very beautiful.

Joslyn Art Museum

Now that my attention has somehow become focused on doors, I have noticed many of them in Omaha that I like. We have many (relatively) old buildings with decorative doors. These doors are at the entrance to the Joslyn Art Museum. I have seen many great art exhibits there. Today, there was a banner by the door advertising an Impressionists' exhibit - I will have to go soon. Aside from the art, the building itself is beautiful. I have been to a few weddings there. They have an atrium area with a fountain in the middle of it which will definitely be showing up here in the near future.

Más Puertas....

So, I'm following my little them started the other day with the door at the castle with the doors from St. Cecilia's Cathedral, which I last posted about here. I guess it's fitting that the day I took this picture was the first warmish day this year....and yesterday and today we've been back to cold weather.
**Internet difficulties and lots of work have kept me from posting daily this last week....I will be back to daily soon! Thanks for your patience!

Beautiful door....

This is the front door at Joslyn Castle that I have posted about before. I had forgotten about this picture. I love the detail, especially of the frame around the door. And here you see reflected the freezing photographer! The day that I went to take pictures there was still snow on the ground.
