Sacred Places
I hope everyone will see this one. I finished this one I have titled Sacred Places. It's an oval piece about 5x7inches in size and one of the smallest pieces I've ever done. It's of the Yahoo Falls in Southern KY. I believe it was sacred to the Cherokee Indians, and probably many of the visitors who come there every year. It's the tallest Water Falls in KY and there is a story about Cherokees being ran off the top of the falls to their deaths by soldiers. I've also read that the story is not true, so I'm not sure what to think. If anyone is interested you can read about it here. http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~brockfamily/ChiefRedBird-atYwahooFalls.html
