This is a little addendum, a story to tell my readers this special reason for this special and beautiful mountain chapel, by Julius Boehm\u2019s home in Issaquah, Washington.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My Hal\u2019s good friend Julius Boehm\u2019s reason of having a beautiful chapel built on his property in Issaquah, at the foot of the Cascade Mountains in the State of Washington. It is a most beautiful and awe-inspiring little chapel and very much a love-inspired, precious vision to Julius, our dear friend. His chapel is also in memory of fallen climbers. It was completed in 1981 and is a replica of a 12th<\/sup> century chapel in Switzerland.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Julius came from Austria, a beautiful country amid the Austrian Alps. He was an avid skier and mountain climber. He continued mountain climbing and giving skiing lessons, when he came here to our area, the foothills of the beautiful Cascade Range.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While growing up in Austria, he was used to seeing beautiful, precious chapels or just a shelter not necessarily a building while skiing and climbing the mountain peaks. They are a frequent sight for the climber who made it to the top. A welcome sight after a climb. Such a reward to enter these small buildings with Frescos on the wall, maybe fresh flowers by a large cross as backdrop. They are well kept, a shelter and a place to give thanks for a good and safe climb. Or pray, be thankful for this magnificent view one is privileged to experience. Anyone and everyone, visitors, skiers and mountain climbers are welcome to enter these chapels high on mountain peaks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Julius loved the mountains, the Alpine mountains in Austria and Germany and here the beautiful Cascade Mountain Range and he loved skiing until late in his life, into his 90s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When he purchased the property by Issaquah, he already envisioned his chapel. A beautiful chalet, to give him the space to live in and have his chocolate shop and the precious white stucco chapel. Inside there are beautiful Frescos painted by his friend Margaret von Wrangel. A steady reminder for Julius of the mountain chapels in his country of birth, Austria.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
