Thanks, Alfonso, for clearing today's path!
I was expecting a lot of brush and heath, but there wasn't, it was a pleasant walk to the graves.
I saw the tree with the green marker pointing the way to the graves--we noticed the same thing when we were at Amatol, it was marked on a tree with a pink arrow, and on the road as well.
After that, Jim took us to Crabbe's cemetery in Double Trouble that I had wanted to see, then he took us to Barnegat Memorial cemetery to see the sea captains graves. I could not believe the number of freemasons that were buried in that cemetery! I also found one marker in particular very interesting, that of a woman who was a 2nd lt. in WWII. We also stopped at the old railroad station in Barnaget?
From there we headed to Webbs Mills for a short walk, and then we headed for home. On the way home we stopped at the railroad station in Chatsworth that Jim told us about, then stopped to chat with Maryland for about an hour.
Marilyn told me that starting in late January she is going to start having open houses on Saturdays, with different people come in, from decoy makers, Pine Barrens musicians to authors like Howard Boyd. I'll post when I hear more.
Also, I noticed one thing about the snow---it makes for great tombstone pictures. I had tried chalk a couple of times to try to make the engravings stand out more until I found out that it was damaging to the stones. But the snow in the engravings makes the writing stand out beautifully!
Jim, thanks for coming along, we really enjoyed your company.
