This past Sunday, at the reunion gathering at St. Thomas Aquinas Church, Kathy Dobias and her sister noted the shape of St. Tommies' Church was in the form of a cross. This cruciform shape is quite common in Gothic styled churches but from the inside you often don't realize its true form. Kathy provided this Google sky view which clearly shows the cross-like structure of the church. Her comment, and I think we all would agree: " It's really quite magnificent when you look at it."
Thanks Kathy.

If you click on "Comments" below this posting, you can read what Dan Carr wrote. He provides a "one click" access to a Google view of the whole STA Neighborhood. Check "
Here" in the comment. Thanks Dan for directing us to Aquinasville so we can "move" around the neighborhood.
Thanks, Kathy. Being able to call up these satellite views is something we're beginning to take for granted, but it's all still fascinating. Here, below the video, is the same view, but you can 'grab' the image with your cursor and 'move' it around: 'Walk' around the neighborhood and find your old house. (Alas, mine is not there anymore.)
