Bells, old cars, flowers and a dramatic late summer sunset
A swing through Lincoln County Arkansas produces some cool images, a dramatic sunset, and old car and truck, an old church bell and more. See the stories that go with the pictures at Corndancer dot-com and Weekly Grist for the Eyes and Mind.
