I'd like to see it in all seasons, so maybe a trip is in order! I can't imagine how hard the work must have been to clear this land out and make it inhabitable.Kylee Baumlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04288354709094515651noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3070488376505303445.post-75788726771228579762008-01-26T15:02:00.000-05:002008-01-26T15:02:00.000-05:00I have been to Golls many times.

With the lack of greenery, your sight depth increases. co. rd. f is a great view from your car down to the Tiffin river, its not the same when its all green and brushy.<BR/>I live in the belly of what was T.G.B.S. I have looked at maps and do not see how goll could be in those borders. But they claim it is the last remaining piece of it.<BR/>The trees are impressive, they go up so high befor the first limb. They make you feel very small, imagin taking an ax to that white oak you were leaning on. In the 1800s it was done day in an day out,until the land was cleared.It took 5to 6 years of sitting,befor the stumps could be blown from there earthly bond. They would burn the trees and take the ashes to town an get 15 cents a wagon load,lie was made from this ash.<BR/>Sycamores in Ohio were huge there are tails of them being 30' across and 200' tall,yes thats 80'+ around. WOW .. what I dont understand is why it all had to be distroyed just why?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3070488376505303445.post-78459079302098834892007-07-08T07:45:00.000-04:002007-07-08T07:45:00.000-04:00Kylee, That is a lovely looking place to Visit.I a...Kylee, That is a lovely looking place to Visit.I asked Blackswamp girl about the Black Swamp and she said revisit your post.I read it before, but it gets better with a second reading.I love your photos of the Chicken tasting fungus, a lilly nearly in Bloom, and the ants on a tree.<BR/> I hope you go back there and take more photos.I will visit one day im sure :)David (Snappy)https://www.blogger.com/profile/06888061575577254705noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3070488376505303445.post-68851024050242045772007-06-27T23:37:00.000-04:002007-06-27T23:37:00.000-04:00OOOOOhhhhh...
