I wish that I could be like the cool kids,
'Cause all the cool kids, they seem to fit in.

Why do I always look so serious in my photos? :P
I love cool windows. I think I'd live in a place if the only thing it had going for it was cool windows. This place's windows themselves aren't so cool, but the way they angle inward to accommodate a terrace is.
The drawbacks here are that this building faces a rather ugly institutional-looking structure and it's on the border of the Red Light District, so you'd just have gangs of lookeeloos going by all night. To sit on this terrace would be fun for, like, 5 minutes.
I went south of the Dartford Crossing for the afternoon. These four shots are the first fruits of that trip.
Cooling Church was the inspiration for scenes in Great Expectations including the churchyard where Pip first meets Magwitch.

St James' Church at Cooling in North Kent is now in the care of the Churches Conservation Trust. It dates from the late 1200s but may replace an earlier Saxon church on the same site. The nave, chancel and the lower part of the tower were built 1280 to 1320AD but the tower did not reach full height until about 1400AD.

Its fame comes from the Victorian period when novelist Charles Dickens lived at nearby Gads Hill. The church is believed to be the inspiration for the churchyard scene in Great Expectations where young Pip meets the convict Magwitch. The 13 child graves near the church door are also believed to be the inspiration for the five graves of Pip's siblings in the same book. These have since become known as 'Pip's Graves'.
Internally the 40-foot long chancel is almost the same length as the 50-foot nave. There is sign of various 19th century restorations while the wooden medieval north door is still hanging on its hinges but the doorway behind is blocked solid. The font is 13th century and probably the oldest item inside the church. The pulpit is made of 18th century material recut in the 19th century. In the chancel the south wall has a sedilia and a rare double piscina. The double piscina dates this area to 1272-1307AD.
A unique feature at Cooling is the vestry wall which is decorated with hundreds of cockle shells. This is probably Victorian and may refer to the scallop shell emblem of St James the Great. An unusual wall memorial on the wall behind the pulpit records the drowning of a seaman who fell overboard off Rio in 1852.
December 26th is a working day for most Americans, which added to a cool start to the day has meant an empty beach at Redington Shores FL.
