Cemetery



On my way to the state forest a couple of weeks ago, I noticed an old cemetery down the road, so after I got done hiking, I walked down to check it out.



This headstone was placed prominently at the entrance:


Most of the stones were in various states of disrepair:


and some had a decided slant:


Most were hard to read.  This one was for three children - Making it to adulthood was a tough row back in the day:





Poor Harry Hill only lived a few months:





Here's a family plot:


Some stones had been replaced:





And there were some markers where there was no gravestone:


Uh-oh - looks like somebody's trying to crawl out ...


I just love old cemeteries.
