For this week's #wednesdaywalk, I avoided the thunderstorms and checked out another old cemetery. I managed to get this one in between two jobs (so don't tell my boss!)
This older cemetery was as early as 1856, and is located in what is known as the "Garden of Eden." It's an old theory posited by an 19th-century reverend; the theory? Galesville, Wisconsin is the site of the original Garden of Eden.
I don't know anything about that, of course. I do know interesting old headstone carvings however and was on the search for a few old ones today. As luck would have it, I did find a few finds of interest.
Yet my favorite was the beautiful old lamb. It was on a broker marker, and covered in moss, but it was beautiful.
I was short on time again today thanks to work, but I will definitely come back to this place. A quick study online indicated that many mysterious folks of yesterday were buried here. I do like historical mysteries, and this place is ripe with them.
With some luck, I managed to get out of the cemetery before the storms rolled back in. Some days, you feel the universe works against you, but today, I felt like it looked out for me. I think, anyway!
Thanks for stopping by to check out my #wednesdaywalk adventure. It was a bit off cuff, but worth the walk. Plus, I didn't get drenched this week, so I'll take that for a win. Until next Wednesday...
