Posted May 5, 201114 yr Between Findlay and Upper Sandusky... Basilica and National Shrine of Our Lady of Consolation http://www.olcshrine.com/ Landmark oddity on way out of town...
May 30, 201114 yr I do!!! What is the building in the last photo? I guess it used to be the Dutch Mill restaurant and sold gas. You can see an image here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/tmryder/3288308451/#
May 30, 201114 yr My grandmother made annual pilgrimages to Carey to visit the shrine. There is something to be said for the power of suggestion. She was diagnosed with cancer at 25, but through her pilgrimages and home remedies, she lived until her mid-seventies. We went often as kids, but my memories are pretty vague about the place. It looks like a well maintained little town.
May 30, 201114 yr I was simply browsing this site when I discovered Cary, only moments ago. First, I would like to thank you, INK, for assembling so many fine pictures that give one such a comprehensive look at this town. Second, I was simple amazed that a church the size of the Basilica even exists in such a small burg; structures like this are traditionally associated with much larger population centers, are they not? But what intrigued me most of all was the comment suggesting Cary isn't well liked--if not, why so?

June 2, 201114 yr i like the tudor building, everyone should have one on their mainstreet. the vfw cladding tho..hmm. you would think there would be a few vfw construction guys to repair the old front underneath? i guess thats the masons gig.
