It has been years since I've been to the old family cemetery where my great grand parents are and my grandpa. That one too is up a steep hill. I think most old cemeteries in WV are up on top of steep hills! There's one on the border of our property that is on top of a very steep hill that makes you wonder what were they thinking back then! Some of those graves were put up there during horse and buggy days. Now you have to put it in 4-wheel drive to get up there.Angelahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15240864960032938754noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3635163323560816578.post-60763760669870544342012-05-29T15:05:55.894-04:002012-05-29T15:05:55.894-04:00Such a peaceful place, and nice that you continue ...Such a peaceful place, and nice that you continue the tradition of decorating the graves.lil red henhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15494641068959278096noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3635163323560816578.post-58582646215576703582012-05-29T13:17:36.831-04:002012-05-29T13:17:36.831-04:00What a lovely setting for remembering.What a lovely setting for remembering.Onlythemanagerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06531176840769484642noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3635163323560816578.post-37887914877763052602012-05-29T06:52:16.228-04:002012-05-29T06:52:16.228-04:00What a lovely post!
