Taken on my way to school this morning. / It was foggy like no other, and I pass a cemetery on my way so that little light bulb went off (haha). Comments/criticism much appreciated :D and I’ll admit, I put a filter on this to bring out the brightness in the fog and darken everything else. but sometimes filters do a photo good =]

John P. Cable Mill – Great Smoky Mountain National Park, USA In Cades Cove there were few sources of power which the frontiersman knew how to harness. One of those power sources was the water wheel such as drove the early grist mills. Cable Mill is one of those. The Smoky Mountains Natural History Association keeps Cable Mill running in Cades Cove to teach the Smoky Mountain visitor a little about life in the 1800’s. The mill is operated April-October. A handful of enterprising residents in Cades Cove built water driven mills to grind grain. Their hope was that other Cades Cove families would prefer paying them to grind the grain rather than to struggle with the small inefficient tub mills at home. The tub mills were only capable of processing a bushel of corn each day. The entrepreneurs were correct and ran fine business in Cades Cove as a result. Cornmeal was the only grain that could be ground in the tub mills and so the waterwheel driven mills that could grind wheat into flour was a welcome addition to the cove. Now biscuits could be eaten some of the time instead of cornbread. Payment for grinding grain did not always mean money exchanged hands in Cades Cove. Sometimes money was paid but other times the miller was paid a portion of the resulting flour or meal. Besides John Cable, his son and also Frederick Shields operated mills. Cable and Shields took double advantage of their waterwheel by using it to power saw mills as well. Cable was the only person in Cades Cove to use the overshot water wheel. Like most business men in the Cove, Cable was also a farmer. He could be summoned from the fields by a large bell he had on the property for that purpose.

Jesus is the Light of the World. Then Jesus again spoke to them, saying, “I am the Light of the world; he who follows Me will not walk in the darkness, but will have the Light of life.” John 8:12. The Cades Cove Methodist Church was constructed in 1902. Methodists were active in the cove as early as the 1820s, and built their first meeting house in 1840. The church was rebuilt in 1920, this is the one that remains in the cove today. The light pouring into the window provides a view of the cemetery from a church pew. There are not many records of the early Methodist Church. The Cades Cove Methodist Church is included among those of the Holston Conference’s Little River Circuit in 1830. The present church building was built by Rev. John E. McCampbell in 115 days for $115. It had two doors and a physical divider to separate males and females. The cemetery contains at least 100 graves and is the second oldest church cemetery in the Cove. Methodists were not as dominant as Baptists in the Cove, but they served the community well. The Civil War and Reconstruction divided the members and dissidents formed the Hopewell Methodist Church on the opposite side of the Cove, which no longer stands.

This Angel has been keeping her quiet vigil for over 100 years. She looked in despair I thought, cobwebs, bird poop, lichen. The family carers of the tombstone probably long gone. For cobwebs best view large! Thank you for looking.

Another peaceful or spooky (depending on your viewpoint) shot from a local cemetery. I had to get up especially early (for me) to get this before the December morning mist lifted.

This is the resting place of many great pioneers of Cades Cove, Great Smoky Mountains National Park Cades Cove Methodist Church and Churchyard Cemetery In the spirit of Cades Cove, a blacksmith who lived in the cave named JD McCambell built this Cades Cove Methodist church in 1902 in 115 days for only $115. later on Mr Mccambell went on to become minister for this church. There were far more Baptist who lived in the cades cove than Methodist but there were enough to form a Methodist congregation in the 1820s. The original church which stood here was a simple log building with a firepit and a dirt floor. A interesting note about the construction of this church is the fact that it used building plans from another church that separated the congregation by men and women. This is why there are one small door on each side of the church rather than one large door in the center which clearly shows in the picture of the church on this page. Also, it is very interesting how this huge building is just balanced on a few local rocks. The graves in this cemetery date back to its first, Feezell, Sarah J. 1826 to more recent ones dated 2007. Death was often communicated to the Cades Cove community through the tolling of the church bell, each mournful toll signifying one year of life. Cove residents could generally identify the deceased through this method and would respond appropriately to assist the grieving family in preparation of the body for burial, to build the coffin, to assure appropriate dress, to provide food or essential farm labor, and to “sit with the dead”. Oftentimes, dependent on the season of death, paper flowers were lovingly made to decorate the burial plot. These were “neighbors” in the truest sense. Sirnames found in this churchyard include: Abbott, Chambers, Craig, Feezell, Gregory, Hill, Hodge, Lawson, Lemons, LeQuire, McCauley, Moore, Myers, Peacock, Sands, Seaton, Shields, Shuler, Snodgrass, Sparks, Tipton, Williams and Wilson.

“There is a sacredness in tears. They are not the mark of weakness, but of power. They speak more eloquently than ten thousand tongues. They are messengers of overwhelming grief…and unspeakable love.” / Washington Irving

Henri-Chapelle American Cemetery and Monument (Belgium) At the Henri-Chapelle American Cemetery and Memorial in Belgium, covering 57 acres, rest 7,992 of our military dead, most of whom lost their lives during the advance of the U.S. armed forces into Germany. Their headstones are arranged in gentle arcs sweeping across a broad green lawn that slopes gently downhill. A highway passes through the reservation. West of the highway an overlook affords an excellent view of the rolling Belgian countryside, once a battlefield.

Originally, I’m sure the townsfolk thought he was just decorating the grave, but perhaps, just maybe, Joseph Bursey was wary of his beloved late wife… It took me forever to find a crop of this shot that I liked. Taken in Lower Island Cove, NL.
