Monday & Tuesday's posts showed the barn just up the road from Devil's Well
& I'll show you the bottom tomorrow from inside the hole.
You should click this one & read about this place..
it's 884 ft from where you see the 'You Are Here' marker to the bottom of the underground lake! =0
They put a lot of work into this walkway leading down to it...
My daughter, Kesley, waving & saying, "Love you mom, just in case the devil gets us & we don't make it back up!"
DON'T FORGET TO CHECK BACK & VISIT LATER ENTRIES TO BARN CHARM!

That's pretty neat!
Devils Well looks absolutely fascinating. I admire you and your daughter for going down those steps -- knowing that you'll have to come back up. The pictures from the bottom should be interesting.
Looks like our kind of place, Tricia. You find the best places to hike... NEAT!!!!!
Hugs,
Betsy
ACK! I wanna see the bottom!! i gotta wait til tomorrow!
I like it when people include a picture of the information signs so we can read them. I just need to learn to read ahead and follow instructions "You should click this one.." so I don't strain my eyes reading the small print. I should have known anyway. Fascinating stuff. Looking forward to the next post.
Fascinating, Tricia! I can understand why they called it Devils Well. This is just a bit north of the Grand Gulf, which is near my brother-in-law's farm down close to the Arkansas border. There are some definite similarities between the two places. I think that whole area is riddled with underground caverns and rivers, and I wouldn't be surprised if the two places aren't connected underground. At the Grand Gulf it feels very strange, and I'm sure you got the same feeling at Devils Well. Imagine when the area was first settled what people must have thought about such stange rock formations. I'm sure they felt like the devil was very close.
Hi Tricia. Thanks for your very warm welcome to your Barn Charm meme. I hope to post more Barn pictures in the future. Thanks for your lovely posts on my blog. Devils Well looks a great place.
What a fascinating place! The diagram is so interesting, too, to get it all in perspective.
what a neat spot and that pic of your daughter is cute :)
You do find the neatest most interesting places Tricia.
A fine series on this interesting place. I enlarged the legend and enjoyed learning more about how the place came to be. Fine post.
I love how adventurous you are, Tricia. I wish I had someone to go on adventures with me. That's why it's fun to check in here with people who like to take photos. This looks like a great place to explore!
Hi neighbor! Thanks for your comments. I'm so glad you led me to your beautiful site! Hope you're entering the Missouri Department of Agriculture Focus on Missouri photo contest. The deadline is this Sunday. Tick, tock. Mine won last year. Your turn.
This looks like a great place to explore Trica, and your photographs of it are wonderful. I especially like the second one.
Thank you so much for sharing these at The Creative Exchange.
Have a wonderful day!

Hope I got my link done correctly. I was just introduced to Barn Charm through someone that saw my last post!!
Awesome......
My kids would love this place Tricia, it looks beautiful. Why does it have such an eerie name?
Looks like a nice hike. All those steps will sure give you a workout!
So many beautiful photos here! A very lovely blog to visit. Thank you for stopping and visiting me.
Hope you are having a terrific week!

Sometimes the best places to go to are free..........Just to share with you folks, i have a new post today on Amish Stories from the Terre Hill days even that was just held in Lancaster Pennsylvania. It was a very hot day but i was able to get i think a few good images from this event. The town is populated with a mix of Amish and old order Mennonites which only adds to its charm. They even have what has become famous in Terre Hill their "outhouse race". The town sits on a hill so it overlooks Lancaster farmland in almost all directions. This is one of my favorite towns to visit because its free from commercialism, so if you are looking for a really all American kind of town with the added bonus of seeing its Amish and Mennonite residents at work and play, then this town is for you. Thanks folks. Richard from Amish Stories.
