air force academy

we literally live 3 minutes from the north gate of the academy. & can see the stadium & the campus from our porch.

 see?

so on a sunny saturday we decided to check it out.

besides a gigantic jet on the roadside & watching a few hunky cadets on their afternoon runs, the cadet chapel was the main reason we went & it did not disappoint. totally funky & peculiar.

pretty incredible.

below the main protestant chapel is this sign:

we may or may not have made some non PC jokes about which groups the protestants consider "below" them. but then they must be better off than those not even mentioned. *cough cough*

these 3 distinct places of worship were just gorgeous.

catholic

jewish

buddhist

very unique & hallowed.
& now i know what i'm looking at when i see the spiky building in the distance. :)
