Fields of the Woods Nov 2021

 On our last day, we drove into Murphy, NC, which was less than 40 miles from the campground.  We stopped at some thrift stores and then at an unusual place called Fields of the Woods.


On 200 acres in the Great Smoky foothills, a man named AJ Tomlinson designed this tribute to the "true church", The Church of God of Prophecy.

On a hillside stretched across 300 feet are the Ten Commandments laid out in stone letters 5 by 4 feet.


It is impressive whether viewing from the base or the top.


And the view at the top is also impressive, especially on a fall day.


On the grounds is a replica of Christ's tomb.


And Prayer Mountain...a pathway with 29 monuments containing biblical quotes.
But a front was moving in, so it was time to head back to camp and get ready for the trip back home.
