Hey Ducky, didn't you notice some of your relatives in one of those photos?

Are there any markers that "talk" about the camping spot?

There is a timeline and some plaques also about native species and plants and birds and insects...There is a long board walk through the swamp

before electric the pond was used to cut ice for homes
The garage in my yard was a old ice house that my grandfather moved to here

Cool! I love places like that!
