6/19/20 Creepy Notes Left for Someone...

I was walking around in the cemetary behind St. Mark's Church and decided to walk up the overgrown path to the church when I saw these two notes attached to trees. It looks like several people have added to the original notes. I took these photos. 

Riverside House in Minisink Hills, PA

I received this photos a while ago from Hans Schmitt. This is from his email: "There used to be a resort on the property where Eilenberger's Landing Lane leaves River Road and heads down to a bennikill of the Delaware River behind the Shawnee Golf Course island. The Riverside House was owned by August Kron, who was Caroline Schmitt's uncle. Attached is a copy of the brochure, unfortunately, the only copy we had is stained."

The other photos, according to Hans is August Kron and a woman who is probably his wife.

Railroad through Minisink Hills, PA

It's been forever since I posted here. Can you believe there is no mobile app for this blogging platform? Here are some old postcards from Minisink Hills, PA.

Not much except there is no bridge  and the little building that used to house the post office is now a private home. Below is a postcard of "The Paper Mill Bridge." I have to investigate the location of that. It was too muddy out there today to go walking around...
