Wild rose. There are several around that area, but likely climbing prairie rose.

Steve,
Thanks.
Some of them are getting kind of long. I had an English teacher once tell me it takes more work to make a composition short. Now I see her point.

Greg,
After I took the picture, I noticed the church is located on Little Hope Road.

Nice find. It seems a little ironic for a Baptist Church to be proclaiming "Little Hope."

Nancy,
I told Joanna that was a pretty low rate compared to some campgrounds I have been at.
And the accommodations were the best!

Nancy,
Yes, as I was paying I said, "Only eight dollars?"

Kathleen,
Thanks!
It was so peaceful there, but then I was also thinking, "It's going to get dark on you before you get to the campground."

Nancy,
I can only guess the story here. The refrigerator was on one of the legs of a triangle intersection. Blocking one side of the triangle wouldn't block traffic, just make it inconvenient.
I think someone was looking for an easy way to dispose of their old refrigerator and decided letting the county highway department take care of it was the easiest.
