I like to haul my old view camera whenever we go RVing.

In the North East corner of Indiana, is Pokagon State Park. One of many CCC projects, is this Bridge. Built in the 1930s.

Though built for the "Model A" era autos, it has been, preserved and upgraded to handle modern park traffic, while still maintaining the classic wood and stone motif.

Like wise, down state next to Lincoln State Park, is the Little Pigeon Baptist Church and Cemetery. It is the resting place of Abraham Lincoln's sister Sarah. By all accounts, Abraham Lincoln was extremely fond of his older sister, who had cared for him after their mother died. Lincoln spent his teen and early adult years nearby, before, moving to Illinois.

The picture shows the Sarah Lincoln Grigsby headstone and the spire monument, marking her husband Aaron's resting place.
