The site borders a large dammed lake with an old road around it. There's this fancy gate and some sort of sheep fountain. It was misting most of the morning but for whatever reason there are orbs in these first 3 pics. I would like to think they are ghosts but it's probably reflections off the mist. This road took a lot of work to put in with perfect rock walls on both sides. And everything is still in pretty good shape. It was so steep to the lake I couldn't even see it most of the time. All I saw was a slope covered by wisteria and was wondering how I would ever be able to hang flags down there in the right spots...anyone got mountain climing gear?
I had a few near falling situations on the steep slopes that are covered by rocks ranging in the size from gravel to the fist sized. You can see how steep the woods are in this pic.
Above is the big dam. I ventured out onto a small part of it and tried not to think about how high it was. This lake sure is going to be beautiful once the leaves change color on a sunny day.
Here's some ancient farm trailer complete with broken fan and other junk.

Pretty! Where was this? What's a sheep fountain? Do lambs come out of it?
Actually these weird things are part of a weird nj site. If we get the next phase of work, I'll be checking it out more.
The sheep thing is above what looks like an old fountain/wishing well on a concrete gate.
I love the pictures. Can you tell me where this is located. I'd love to take pics there! julesb33@yahoo.com
