Services In A TUFF SHED®

Timothy Price48 Comments

White Oaks, New Mexico doesn’t need no stinking cathedral or post-bank-style building for worship services. A TUFF SHED® with a steeple does just fine.

A colorful cacti in the churchyard, and a second TUFF SHED® used for fellowship hall.

The Harvest Moon rising last night with Saturn peeking through the clouds on the right. Saturn in the center photo. The Harvest Moon shining through the clouds.

There was lightning to the north last night. Saturn and its moons in plaid. The Harvest moon finally rose above the clouds.

Another Old School

White Oaks Schoolhouse was built in 1895. It’s only open on weekends, so I did not get to go inside. White Oaks, New Mexico is 17 miles northeast of Carrizozo, New Mexico. The White Oaks webpage is at http://whiteoaksnm.com/index.html. There is also a wiki on White Oaks, NM: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/White_Oaks%2C_New_Mexico.

It has a three-hole outhouse.

A safe from the old post office and bile of mystery metal. Although there is an old tricycle on the concrete slab.
