This picture kind of sums up the mood of the photography today.
Old & busted.

Prairie Grove, Arkansas is definitely an interesting place. Not exciting, but interesting.
First, we visited the college at Cane Hill.

Allegedly the first college in the state of Arkansas - but then was moved to Fayetteville.

There was slight rain, so to protect my camera, I wasn't spending much time framing or looking for different angles.

The bell tower was really messy inside. It basically became a dumpster.

You can even see the graffiti. Nice.

Ched said that they have festivals here every year. Here is where all four people who come actually get to sit down.
I wonder if they fight over the tall seat.

Then we visited a cemetery.

This was a very creepy place. Very old & rustic.

We saw a few masons tombstones.


Next was the old Flour Mill outside of the Cane Hill village...

These running water pictures are taken at about a 1 second exposure. Also with an aperture setting of F32. Which for photographers out there is about as small an opening as I could do on my d60. Anything much longer was over exposed, even on the overcast day.

I crawled down to the creek bed....the mill is much more interesting from there.




Finally, we took the driving tour ("Battle Tour") of the Battle of Prairie Grove.



So, I found out this little humble town has quite a bit to be proud of...
until next time...
