I especially liked your information regarding burial mounds. One place we lived there were Native American burial mounds and one had to be careful not to disturb them. I also enjoyed seeing the many flora you photographed in the park. <br /><br />Thank you and I hope all is well with you and your family!Lowellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15305748075301453010noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2324653069160902634.post-55461340065020747222011-11-09T08:12:54.443+09:002011-11-09T08:12:54.443+09:00You always delight me with your posts.
