Mrs. Trowbridge mentioned the great hole several times in her writings; the reason being that the husband of one of her dear friends was severely injured in a fall during an exploration of the hole. A rescue was attempted, but he expired.
Through the course of my numerous treks into Wild Rose Creek, I was never able to find the fabled hole that she wrote about. To my knowledge Mrs. T never entered the hole, so she must have created this painting from descriptions combined with her brilliant imagination.

Great illo!Love the idea and....I see abad face over there:)
An adventure of the best kind... not knowing what the outcome will be. This goes well with both subeterranean and expired. I see that creature about to pounce but I am sure the shrews will escape, outwit, or outsmart any horrors that lurk within the great hole.
