the mcintosh reserve

we checked out the mcintosh reserve at whitesburg today, and mostly had it to ourselves --- so very very quiet --- surprised to  see spanish moss that far north, not a lot, but it was there --- trails not very good but nice to inspect that part of the river

i've never seen stone vaults quite like these at the bowen cemetery, dating to the 1840s --- 

mcintosh's grave --- they burned his house down when they killed him in 1825 --- the county installed a log house dragged in from alabama when the site was developed as a county park in the 1980s
