Dawt Mill from above and from downstream looking up at the old wood bridge in the summer and winter  of 1947.

An fairly rare bird in Missouri. Taken Canon EOS 5DM2 with 200mm f2.8 lens and 2.0 TC.

On a trip on November 6th to River of Life Farm, my sister and I made a side trip to Trail Top Glade (about 30 minutes away). Even though the majority of adult Smoke trees were past their peak in color, the saplings were still in fall dress. Click to enlarge.

A couple of pictures, both above the falls,  at early dusk and closer to dark on November 5th, 2008 near the falls at ROLF.

You can see the PO, the blacksmith shop, the mill, and the stream (Spring Creek), the Bank and a scattering of homes through out the valley. Rockbridge was the county seat prior to moving to Gainesville (where it is today).

A nice view of Spring Creek, a beautiful creek managed for hatchery stocked rainbow trout fishing at Rockbridge.

A crop of a much large picture near the old crossing at Kelly Ford on 11/6/08. Click to enlarge.

This guy was working a dead tree where I placed a chunk of suet with peanuts embedded. It took him about 45 minutes to located the food. Canon 5D with 400mm f5.6 lens on monopod. 11/6/08.

Ann has some beautiful roses at ROLF, and a got a picture of one with a macro lens on October 2, 2008.
