Amongst my inherited photos is one of those postcard type photo's of the church at Jericho (and I have no idea what significance it has being in the photo album!) so I especially enjoyed that history of the Norwegian churches. Isn't ?stavkirche? part of that heritage?-I visited a replica in Rapid City, S.D. and it was fascinating-did they ever use that construction technique in Iowa?
