With this photo this is our walk through woods. I believe it takes you to the Historic village. Kate & didn't walk all the way through due to the bugs. Our deep woods off was beginning to wear thin.
Stones you see at by looking off the edge of the path & into the woods.
stone at edge of woods need to be put upright. a little blurry as I find some of them were. I was just so excited to find this old of cemetery it was like I was walking and trying to take photos when I should of been standing still. sorry about the blurriness.
