Spires and Towers


The United Methodist Church stands at the corner of Fifth and San Benito Streets. The building was constructed around 1910 to replace a wooden structure, which was built in 1872. Back then, it was the Methodist Episcopal Church South.

Two Vaults


You're looking into the bottom floor of the old Pendergrass Building on the corner of Fifth and San Benito Streets. It's being turned into a restaurant. See the bank vault? Once upon time, this location was home to a bank that was across the street from another bank, which is now a nightclub called the Vault.

More Sideshow Bob?



So, what do you think? Do the hedges remind you of a bunch of Sideshow Bobs (from the Simpson's) after they've gotten haircuts?

And, there is that palm tree on San Benito Street.

Dandy, Delightful, and Delish!


Here's a dandy field of yellow mustard, near the corner of Union and Valley View Roads. A delight to the eye and nose. Also, delish to eat, sauteed in garlic, soy sauce, and olive oil. 

Take 25 is participating in ABC Wednesday, a weekly meme hosted by Mrs. Nesbitt and her friends. Today is the letter D. To check out other posts, please click here.

What Represents Us?


This plaque stands outside of the San Benito County government building at the corner of Fifth and Monterey Streets. I assume it represents the various aspects of our county. If you had the opportunity to create a plaque, what five scenes would you create?
