It's Holy Week 2020! The week we waited all of Lent for. Sort of. This was a strange Lent and it will be a strange Holy Week.
It will be religious-themed photos all week this week Holy Week. First stop: Groom, Texas. Groom, Texas, is the home of the giant 190-foot tall cross, located just off I-40 between Amarillo and the vertical part of the Oklahoma/Texas border. At the base of the cross and statuary depicting the stations of the cross, with statuary from both the traditional Stations of the Cross and the "Scriptural Way of the Cross," which includes additional preliminary material. Such as this: a stylized statue of the Last Supper. The three crosses of Calvary are visible in the background.
It's a nice scene. It's not a place for quiet contemplation, given the loud highway noise in the background. It's a place for photography. Which I did.
Visited November 2006.
