St. John in the Wilderness Flat Rock, North Carolina

Tucked into the trees on the side of the road is the St. John in the Wilderness Episcopal Church. We stopped and walked the property briefly and it truly is in the wilderness, with old trees standing proud and a variety of vegetation growing below. There are graves on terraces surrounding the church and an old carriage step, a reminder of the past! Hard to imagine navigating the mountains all those years ago.
