Church of stone work

I went for a walk around Jacksonville and came upon this church. The founders must have loved stone work for the outside is covered with some of the best that I’ve seen since the National Cathedral in Washington DC.

The gargoyles were interesting in that they carved them actually tearing the stone apart with their claws as they clung to the top of the walls. I even ran into this stone lion at one of the corners as I walked back to the boat. I was a hot but rewarding walk about town.
