Not Davy Crockett's Cabin
Davy Crockett Cabin
This is Davy Crockett's last cabin that isn't Davy Crockett's cabin and isn't on Davy Crockett's property. Davy Crockett's cabin was disassembled and moved to this site in Rutherford, Tennessee, for reassembly, but visiting carnival people burned the logs to stay warm. Only two of the original logs survived. This replica of Davy Crockett's cabin was built with wood taken from Davy Crockett's mother's cabin.

Clock Tower Tree
The Decatur County Courthouse in Greensburg, Indiana, has had trees growing from its clock tower since the 1870s. The locals claim that the presence of the trees is a mystery. Perhaps they grow their naturally. Perhaps it is a very long-running marketing stunt. Regardless of the source of the tree, a tree growing on top of a courthouse tower is an intriguing sight.
