LIGHTS OFF  | LIGHTS ON

I’ve got a little bit of a backlog, so I’m going to make a couple of unorthodox posts!

I haven’t been inspired much to write lately so the photos from my recent trips have been adding up.

These photos are from a snowy adventure that Windy, Caden, and I had at the beginning of last week. I hope you enjoy and sorry for the lack of story to go along with the photos.

One thing I can say about the recent trip is that it was a first to drive my new Jeep up into the Ozarks. I purchased a 2006 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited on March 16th. It’s been a great vehicle and is much more conducive to my life style than my last vehicle a 2005 Lincoln LS. I’ve been loving it so far.

Cave Mountain Road was beautiful in all the snow they had. Along the way we stopped to catch a few photos of a pond in the snow. I saw this opportunity to get a minilamistic photo and took the shot, I think it turned out great.

On the way to Jasper we decided to stop at Triple Falls, it was running great that day due to all the snow melt.

We also made a quick stop at the Parker Hickman Farmstead, I seized the opportunity to grab another shot of the Jeep before we headed down an extremely rough road to an old cemetery.

Last but not least, a photo from the cemetery. It’s probably hard to make out what the headstone says so this is it:

“Joseph Cecil
Born
April 26, 1796
Died
July 28, 1873″

He was born only 20 years after the Declaration of Independence was signed and our colony became a country, pretty incredible and one of the oldest deceased persons I have ever seen.

    Geesh. Your shots are so good! I’m still posting mine too. That was a good day for pictures. Especially when you consider full sun!
