Photo Challenge #543

You don’t need to be a weatherman to know which way the wind blows, Bob Dylan astutely noted.

I’ll add: You don’t need to be a congregant to know that last week’s Photo Challenge showed the weather vane atop Saugatuck Church. (Click here for the photo.)

The white building set behind a broad green lawn is one of Westport’s most recognizable landmarks. (Never mind that it wasn’t always there; in 1950, it moved diagonally from its previous site where — among other events — meetings led to Westport’s official founding in 1835.)

Anyone driving by (and stopped at the Myrtle Avenue light) has time to gaze at the church — and its weather vane.

Morley Boyd, Diane Bosch, Seth Schachter, Robert Mitchell and Andrew Colabella all knew exactly where.

And — in a rarity for our Photo Challenge — there were no wrong guesses.

Will there be any this week? If you know where in Westport you’d see this sight, click “Comments” below.
