Date on the sign: 1786.
Now I'm sure this building isn't quite that old...
...but there were things inside that if they aren't, they're pretty danged close!
The piano has seen better days...
There is no eletricity--although it had been wired at one point in time. The bathroom is a tiny outhouse just around back. When you got thirsty, just pop down the small incline and take a sip of ice cold, clear, and fresh spring water!
This hole of water is right outside the old church so that when the spirit moved them, they could just head outside and be baptised! It's such an awesome, peaceful and inspiring spot. It gave me ideas for the place to wrap up Morgan's Creek.
BUT I could also easily picture the front being lined with horse and buggy set ups waiting for a old fashioned wedding!
It was so nice to find a place free of"tagging" and other vile forms of defacement. While we stored up the knowledge of where the place was, all agreed not to share the information with just anyone. We want to protect its peaceful, serene and awe inspiring secret for as long as we can.
While we were out exploring we also found proof the Blair Witch had been visiting her cousin Sylamore Sadie...
(Of course one wise acre termed it "Red Neck Stonehenge"....HEHEHEHE)
Check in again later for more snaps of this wonderful trip!
Hugz til then,
