Indian Mounds

While Mom and I spent last Saturday together visiting the "Parade of Homes", having lunch and enjoying a final trip to "Charming Charlie", Dad, Trey and the boys spent the afternoon admiring the handiwork of the Hopewell Indians. The Newark Earthworks is a 2,000-year-old complex and is recognized as the largest geometric earthworks ever created. Unfortunately, much of the site was destroyed over years of urban development, but three distinct areas remain: Great Circle Earthworks, Wright Earthworks and Octagon Earthworks. Below are Trey and Alexander's pictures from "The Boys' Adventure". Unfortunately, no one thought to take "people pictures", so I don't have any to share...that's OK...I'm happy they agreed to take the camera and take pix for Mom :)! Enjoy!
