Gettysburg (A Study in Two Parts): 2

In which three adventurers without power at home traveled to an old butchering yard and found a wooden covered bridge (that people used to be hung from?!):

Were dissatisfied with the path that lay neatly before them and found a new friend while exploring the embankment wall:

Found relief from the disturbingly hot heat while venturing across and through the creek/stream/small river that was coated with slippery mucked stones but was beautifully clear:

(Came back on the other side of the bridge to hear the tiny squeaks of a family of bats <3 <3 <3):

Lurked around/on/in/under the Devil’s Den:

And found a loyal companion guarding the memory of his former masters:

It was a very good day~
