After we went to the places we were last night and took pictures, we decided to head up north some more and check out the Old Bellmore Schoolhouse Ruins in Bellmore, the Old Mansfield Village in Mansfield, and The Crying Baby Cemetery in Rockville.
We didn't find the schoolhouse. We drove all the way out to Rockville only to find out that almost every town has a "Crying Baby Bridge or Cemetery" so that is most likely a dud. We spent the majority of our time in Rockville at the Burger King parking lot using their WiFi trying to find the correct cemetery, which we never did. We did however find a friendly cow:
On our way back we stopped at the Old Mansfield Village. You can see this village from 59 North. The story is that late at night you are supposed to see ghostly figures walking through the village and hear the mill as if it were operating. Well we went during the day so we saw nothing of that nature, but it was a pretty place. Here are some pictures of the mill:
Here are some pictures of a few covered bridges we came across:
All in all we must have driven about 7 hours that day and that doesn't include the ride home. We didn't see any ghosts or experience anything scary, but we did have a great time. Not only did we get to see beautiful landscapes and foliage, we got to spend some quality family time together.
Next time we will head up North to Kokomo and Peru. Can't wait to find out what awaits us there.......
