…with a moral. This beautiful abandoned cemetery is over a century old, it has some of the more artful and finely carved headstones I have seen in a graveyard. Clearly the people buried in this graveyard had money -at one time. Yet, it couldn’t save them. They still became lost in the dark woods. And […]
One of My Missions…
…for my South Carolina trip was to go to the atlantic ocean. I went there once, when I was 19, the day before I left South Carolina to come back to my home state. I toured the USS Yorktown with my mother. Even though we went on that ship I was never able to really […]
