Just happened to be driving past the cross this weekend and pulled off to take a picture or two. I still need to rotate it slightly, but thought I would share it with everyone.

I've probably driven by that cross several times (I know I've seen it). I'm a Saluki (SIUC) and have a brother in TN.

Ah, Carbondale and Shawnee National Forest (one of my favorite places). I worked in Effingham for a while and from my office I watched them build the cross.
