The funny thing is that he's not even religious, he just liked the design! It's based on a church he came across in a ghost town in Canada.

Re: My dad built a chapel...
That's absolutely gorgeous. I am not a religious person but I would love to visit and just sit and enjoy the natural setting.

Re: My dad built a chapel...
I love the setting; dreamlike. One to sit and contemplate and relax so easily. Hmmm gives me an idea of what to do today

He's 66.
He's not an architect either, just someone who is very good at woodwork!
