 An Apple A DayAfter visiting my great-great grandmother's grave site up in Pleasant Lake, we headed to Fort Wayne were we spent the night. We discovered that Fort Wayne doesn't switch over to Daylight Time, and so we had no idea really what time we should be on, but nonetheless, we figured it all out.
On our trusty road atlas we found that our hotel was very close to the resting place of Johnny Appleseed. I thought it would be cool to visit this and see what kind of tribute would be available for a photo op.
At first I thought they had dismantled the memorial to Johnny, because we investigated the park and found nothing of interest that would indicate Mr. Appleseed had been laid to rest. As we were leaving I saw the historical marker pointing to his gravesite! So with a swift U-turn we doubled back and were able to scope out the area in which he lies in peace. Factual information about John Chapman an be found here. |

Hey, I had to login to comment here, do you use to have it like that?
This was a interesting memory anyway, I learned something new. I love that with blogging, there is always some one writing something you didn't know!
Thanks for stopping by :-)
