turkeys in full feather,
wolves,
and turtles. This shot of the open mouth of a snapping turtle shows a bit of pink on the end of his tongue. Anyone know why it is there?
After lunch we went on a cemetery search. The families who had lived here for generations had family burial plots. These remain and are still tended to and used by the families. We visited the Nickel family plot whose ancestors fought in the American Revolution. There were also several who fought for the South in the Civil War and some who were WWI, WWII and Korean War veterans. Many of the original stones stand but have newer stones with easier to read engravings.
The closeup of the badge on Jeremiah Nickell's stone designates that he fought in the Revolutionary War.
After dinner we took a lovely stroll to the lake where the sunset was gorgeous but the cameras were in the RV.
