One of the best uses I've seen for a closed church...

In the tiny intersection town of Scotch Ridge, just a few miles west of Pemberville, stands THIS little gem. Formerly the Scotch Ridge Presbyterian Church, the congregation folded a short while back. I don't know exactly how long ago, but my guess is that they merged with the Presbyterian church in Pemberville. At any rate, the church itself was sold, and is now the private home of the VERY lucky Martin family.
It appears to be impeccably maintained. Even the bell is still in the bell tower, and perhaps they can still ring it.
I hope they leave this board up, just as it is!
How would you like to read your evening paper ... or any other good book (Good Book?) ... by the light of the sun shining through THIS?!
