The
Landscape through the years has went through some obvious
changes, but much has remained. Stone walls frame the old
farm lands, foundations grace the forests, rivers, and reservoir,
quarries double as waterholes, rock ledges hide the secrets
of Indians.
Much
is to be explored, so read on and enjoy the stories of the
land.
