Today we decided to go on another geocaching hike. Keith discovered that there was one just a quarter mile from our house, so we took a little walk.
Keith led us to a very old cemetary. It was one of the poorer cemetaries about 120 years ago and most of the graves and bodies were lost, moved, or stolen, but it still had a creepy vibe. You could see some very nice 6 ft sinkholes about every 2 1/2 feet or so and you can guess what used to be in those holes. We searched for about 10 minutes before Keith and Derek found our cache under a fallen tree.
Keith logged our visit in the book.
On our way out, we found 2 headstones that had been moved. One was unreadable, but the other wasn't.
When we looked up the hill, we saw where it had originally sat.
I think cemetaries are very interesting, so this cache was way more fun to find than the last one, in my opinion.

this is so cool! I am getting a gps for Mark for his birthday for sure, and there are tons of hikes right near our home! Thanks for the website!
You guys are going to have so much fun!
Cool tombstones. I stopped on the way home from Abilene last month at the Fort Chadborne cemetary. Pretty sad and forgotten! I almost (ALMOST) wanted to get out an start weeding around some of the grave markers - no way! Too many stickers!
