How often we take the beauty around us for granted...while selling fish on the square today, we noticed a huge tour bus pull over on the southwest corner and loads of young people poured out. They made their way to the courthouse lawn and for at least 20 minutes or so they moved around the courthouse taking pictures and viewing it from different angles. Several of them made their way down to the fish trailer and we asked them about the group with whom they were traveling. They were architecture students from Notre Dame visiting some architectural highlights throughout Indiana. They had been to the West Baden Dome and were en route to Columbus, but our courthouse was on their list of stopping places.
Here I had been standing with my back to the courthouse all morning, not stopping to notice how especially beautiful it looked today under the bright fall sky. I decided I had to snap a picture right then and there. What a gem we have right here in Orange County!

Hear... hear...
my cherished picture of the courthouse is one that Pops snapped off one day driving around the square .. now matted and hanging in my living room.
It' a special place.
