I noticed on the way to Sunday School this exquisite specimen of Hydrangea quercifolia (Oakleaf Hydrangea) softening and cascading over the hard edge of a beautifully aged and mossy brick wall. We are very fortunate to attend Sunday School in one of the finest examples of Greek Revival architecture in Georgia---The Old Medical School Building.
The building is next door to our church; after our early service we leave our church building, walk the old brick walk, and enter this building built in 1835 and designed by architect Charles Blaney Cluskey. The exterior is pure Greek Revival, built of brick covered in stucco to resemble large stones, but the interior reveals a large central dome that is barely noticeable from outside.
My favorite part are these enormous stones making up the front steps---the top one worn into a groove by the generations of feet that have passed through these doors.
