The bell tower of the church has been one place I’ve wanted to explore. With a free hour and a trusty ladder, we ventured upwards to see what we could find.
I love the sound of our church bells and would like to hear them of a regular basis.
Construction began on the church in 1949, and it was built with local stone.
Darin helped me access the trap door.
There’s a cool first room below the bells themselves.
The steeple is finely constructed out of lumber.
The smallest bell out of the three is reported to be off an old train steam engine.
These two 36”ers make all the noise you want. Not sure what they are made of, but all you have to do is tap your fingernails on them and they will sing.
Fun stuff. I’d love to hear theses guys three times a day, everyday. We’ll see what we can do. In the meantime, it’s good to see what we have to work with. Ranch on.
