Lots of history, nice place to walk and take pictures. Go during day light to be safe from ghosts and hoodlums.

I have photographed many cemeteries and this is by far the most beautiful. It covers a lot of acreage and unfortunetly my time was limited to about an hour to investigate. As you enter the gates there is a sign that says " Iris's in bloom " and this was not understated. Many of the family plots are bordered with... More

I visit here every once in awhile to get exercise.. The graves are beautiful and theres some statues worth looking at.

Maps can be purchased at the gift shop, but can be hard to read as there is an awful lot of land to cover. We went in July and it was very hot,... More
