Raus Community Center

Sunday after church we decided to go down to the Raus Community Center. The community center is located right behind Shaine's house. It was a one room school house some time ago. There is still no indoor plumbing which is crazy. Behind it there is a creek where Shaine and I like to spend a lot of our time. This place is really special to us because this is where we first said I love you to each other. 

Today we took a short walk down to the creek and took a few pictures to share with everyone. 
Hope you enjoy!



This is taken from the road in front Shaine's house on our way to the creek.









This is the out house and guess what no plumbing and your on your own when it comes to toilet paper. 











 Today was a perfect day to visit the creek!

After we were at the creek for a while we took a little walk down the road and took a few pictures of the bed and breakfast. This looks like a wonderful place to visit.



Thought I would take a picture of their sign in case you might want to check them out.


 This is a picture of the beautiful country side we saw while we were on our walk.



This is how you know that you are in a small community when the Church of Christ and the Baptist Church are side by side. On Sunday there are normally about 20 to 30 cars and they park in the fields beside the churches and in the middle of the fork in the road. Neither church has a paved parking lot and the Baptist Church has an extra building behind the church. I think this is their fellowship hall. Both churches are very small and look to have been here for some time, I think the Church of Christ is the older of the two.

Hope you enjoy the post maybe we will get to Short Springs soon!
