Day 62: Gotta Go Back In Time

The WF walked through Southern Indiana farmland for most of the morning and afternoon. He finally made his way to the serene, mind-calming Spring Mill State Park where he visited the Virgil I. "Gus" Grissom Memorial, which honors America's second man in space! He then took a 1.5 mile trail through the park and into Pioneer Village where he chatted with blacksmiths, laborers, and the "townsfolk" from the 1860s. He had an extended conversation with a town laborer named Larry who tinkers with antique looms when not volunteering at the park. He was a fine chap with a long white beard … even longer than the Fool's!
