Various photos

Some various photos I have taken in the last couple of weeks. The church at Grand Gulf is still hanging on. Each time I go I expect to see it caved in. The old rocker is at the dogtrot cabin located on the grounds of the Grand Gulf Military Park. The gravestone among the canes is located in the Grand Gulf Cemetery. The Holsum bread sign and the Coca-Cola sign are on an outbuilding at the Old Country Store in Lorman. The bottom photo is of a lotus plant getting ready to bloom at Hamilton Lake in Claiborne County.

Grand Gulf Nuclear Station

Ventured down to Hamilton Lake in Claiborne County the other day and caught the steam rising from the cooling tower at Grand Gulf Nuclear Station at sunrise. I love the lily pads in the water in the foreground. Plus, the clouds are pretty awesome, too. Looks like the angels were raking them that morning. Maybe God was playing golf and this was one of the bunkers.

Grand Gulf Cemetery

There's not much left of the town of Grand Gulf in Claiborne County, which figured so prominently in the Civil War. Just a church and cemetery, along with the town's original jail cells, have survived. The cemetery and jail cells are now located on the grounds of the Grand Gulf Military Park. The church is just down the road.

The cemetery is one of my favorites. Light and shadow just dance across the gravestones and, like Cedar Hill Cemetery, I always discover new photos every time I go.
