In a previous, I wrote about Hastings, Minnesota and the neighborhood that I drove through in looking at a house we wanted to see. Â Most of those houses were cookie-cutter type houses.
I drove back again with a different “eye” to see what the town looked like. Â The town itself sits on the banks of the Mississippi River and has approximately 23,000 residents.

And, of course, every older town has to have large church buildings. Â This one is the Berean Bible Baptist Church.
