Open Monday - Friday: 9 AM - 4 PM This work is an allegory of hope and resilience during the tumultuous times of the American Civil War, using the sublime beauty of nature to echo the national sentiment. "Our Banner In The Sky" by Frederic Edwin Church, painted circa 1861, is a striking and patriotic piece of art. Our yard is the first yard on the west side. Heritage Resources is located 3 miles east of Carman (Rd 21W) on Highway 3, and 1/2 mile south. ca (#33078) A tree stands in the foreground, its broken and leafless branches silhouetted against the sky, forming what appears to be a flagpole against the natural elements. This painting captures a vibrant sunset with dramatic red and orange hues streaking across the sky, mimicking the stripes of the American flag.

Last week I got the book on Amazon and read it again. He was from Zermatt and I asked him if he'd known the guide - "He's my Uncle".
Met a lady there wlho was going to climb the mountain the following day and her guide Vic Andermatt. I took the cable car up to the ski lodge then hikedup as far as I dared, wearing penny loafer shoes. In 2005 I met a man at the airport in Anchorage whose name was Andermatt.
One of my first reads back in the mid-fifties. Was so enthralled by the story that I went to see the Matterhorn near Zermatt, Switzerland in 1962. Now I'm all hyped about going over there again and experiencing the most beautiful mountain in the world.
Later I saw the movie "Third Man on the Mountain" and now I own the DVD. Maybe I'll just read Banner in the Sky a few more times and watch the DVD as well. I'm almost 80, so that ain't gonna happen.
