Cedar Springs A.R.P. Church, Sumter National Forest , South Carolina

I passed this church with a really old cemetary out front. I came through Sumter National Forest and then in the middle of woods there it was. I googled it and found that some of these markers that follow are pre Revolutionary War. It is a very eerie place, I just wish Kathy had been with me, I love to scare her. She's funny, she is a afraid of mutant Hillbillies ie The Hills Have Eyes. We live less than one half mile from the city of Detroit (Murder USA) and she gets scared when we are in the beautiful country, go figure.

One note: Shortly after leaving here or right before I got there (Senility is setting in I guess). I hit my first deer since I started doing this. I wasn't going very fast maybe 35, She jumped right in front of me, and I braked hard. I heard a thud and it looked like I hit her dead center in front. No damage to truck and I didn't feel my truck run her over (no antlers, so I presume it was a her). I think she went under my truck and ran away. I couldn't stop right there, it was on a curve but I didn't see her in my mirror. I think she ran out my passenger side to the woods. I was looking in my driver side mirror and never saw her after. I stopped about a quarter mile down road and didn't see any blood or any evidence that I even hit her.

Thats one way to get a deer. I think you should try using a gun the next time.
