Today's History Lesson on the Way to Work

Sometimes I go to work via 24th Street and I've often noticed the historical marker near the grocery store near Orange Avenue. Upon further investigation, I found a wonderful little spot that's pretty neat - on top of a knoll right behind the grocery is the cemetery and burial spot of Agatha Strother Lewis and Colonel Elijah McClanahan.

I walked up there this morning and took a look about. Between the silence of the morning, the remnants of last week's snow, and three days before Christmas, it was a nice litte escape from the hustle of the season.

You never know what you'll find if you open your eyes.

Another sign

You just never know what you'll see when you look around. This was at a pawn shop!
