I don’t think there’s anyone left to repair the old wrought iron fences and gates. After 150+ years they are slowly falling away.

This Set Was About The Details, Monochrome Monday
A walk around the Indian Fields Methodist Campground. Built in 1787 – 1848 in St. George, South Carolina.
‘Religious camp meetings played an important role in the growth of some Protestant denominations in the early 19th century in rural parts of the United States. These meetings served a much wider population than a single church. Camp meetings usually lasted around a week and were social as well as religious occasions for the participants. A typical camp meeting site started with a brush arbor surrounded by tents and wagons. Often a chapel or tabernacle was built to replace the arbor and wooden cabins called “tents” were built to replace actual tents.’ (Wikipedia)
Indian Fields is one of several camps still active in South Carolina. Meetings (revivals) are yearly and most have never missed a meeting in 200+ years.
Best viewed large, all about the little things here.

Road At Indian Fields, Monochrome
I think we even have a bit of urban sprawl here. The community was limited to 99 cabins/tents. Each has an address like anywhere else. Except I see several that have a half address. More than one cabin to a spot?
An asphalt road surrounds the buildings. It’s a great walk. Interesting because the back of the cabins face the road.
The community is laid out on a rough circle. The center field is home to a large open sided tabernacle, the house of worship. Like the old days of revival meetings services are held for a week, other time spent on community meetings and meals.

Swans The Same But Different, Monochrome
I seem to remember there are seven different subspecies of Swans. I’m not very good at individual identification of them. From what I can tell the best method is based on the beak, lore, and their shape.
That said, I do know these are three different Swans, the best I’ve got.
Not exactly pristine white birds, this is a swamp after all.
