CCC projects at McCormick's Creek

McCormick's Creek is Indiana's first state park, opened in 1916. the Creekside shelter is one of the original CCC projects.

 Among other projects were trail building, a stone bridge and a gate house.










 View from the very tall fire tower.


The bridge over McCormick's Creek was built in the mid 30's.

it is so strange that it is possible that i might go there too. doesn't that seem impossible?! and yet it is not so far from where we might one day live in Indiana. (darned immigration taking its sweet time.)

what better way to spend a day but outside?
