Yeah, that's 45 minutes, a pretty fur piece. Our old ECUSA church was 30 minutes from our house, our Catholic parish is only 15 minutes away which is certainly more convenient. And the Latin Mass parish is only 15 minutes away in the opposite direction.

I guess it really depends on whether you are a "low church" or a "high church" Episcopalian. St. Mary the Virgin will be very high . . . a long time ago we had an ECUSA rector who came to GA from CC Plano, and he was pretty low when he arrived (he was much higher by the time he left). CC Plano is more evangelical, which may mean "low", or it may not. Depends. You'll have to go and see.

As for our family, we were so high our noses bled . . . as my dad says, "up in the rafters with the bats." If there were an Anglican Use rite church here, we would definitely attend now and then. We love our home parish though, and I don't think we'd change.

The parish I belong to is VERY high, very rich, and very liberal. Actually I prefer the high church because I enjoy all the ritual. I’ve never attended a low church. I have heard that CC is very conservative. I don’t know why I keep dithering around. I should just go and see for myself. I’d hate to miss all the Christmas masses and I know my son will wonder why I’m not there too.
