This door will take you into one of our local lighting shops. You can find all kinds of lamps and light fixtures there, although most of them are a little too fancy for my taste.
One of the many beautiful arched doorways at the Fondren Presbyterian Church. The light was beautiful on this day. To see a beautiful French doorway, please visit Ciel in Versailles.
The doorway to the Warren Hood Library on the Belhaven campus. I have a dear friend who works here. I am a little ashamed to say I've never actually been inside though. Maybe I'll have to change that. What do you say dear friend?
This is a detail on the doorways at the War Memorial Building in downtown Jackson. It was built under the Works Progress Administration. These doors were hand cast in aluminum and depict different types of war instruments and the year they first came on the scene. It's a beautiful piece of work.
It's Wednesday doorways and I have the former entrance to a law firm for you. This building isn't very old, but I guess it just hasn't found the right tenants yet. Let's hope they find someone soon, or I'm afraid this place will get old before its time.
This is the doorway into the old Madison Station elementary school. I peeked into a few of the windows and it's really a shame this building is not in use anymore. It's just next to the old high school which has been converted to a "cultural" center.
Maybe one day these buildings will truly find a new use. I hope so!
The entrance into the former Madison-Ridgeland High School. The building is now owned by the city of Madison and is used as a "cultural" center. I don't know of any cultural events that actually go on here and a local theater group was denied usage of the old stage area. But I guess we must at least put up appearances of supporting culture and the arts.
I was torn between posting this shot today or waiting for the weekend reflection, but I finally decided to post it in honor of Ciel in Versailles, for doorway Wednesday.
This particular door leads to Gallery 119, the counterpart to the resto downstairs. It's a local art gallery that shows local artistic talents in downtown Jackson. Maybe we'll stop aboveground before going underground next time!
I saw this decorative door while wandering the Highland Colony Village and I knew it would be the perfect thing for a Wednesday post. Ciel from Versailles is always treating us with such nice doors and entrances, I hope this humble little shop door from Jackson can compare with some of those historical beauties she posts!
I am back from San Francisco. Check Here and There soon for photos from my trip. It was fabulous!
Sophia's restaurant is part of the Fairview Inn, however it is open to local diners as well! The food is delicious and the staff will attend to your every need.
I'm going to be out of town this weekend, but I'm putting my blog on automatic posting. Happy Labor Day everyone! Hope you all have a great long weekend.
