UEB,
Let me know when you go to this cemetery. I want to get in on the fun.

Angela,
Sheriff Cronk told us he would take care of us if we went to jail. He said
he would see to it that we would be put on work release and community
service, then we would be able to work in the cemeteries again. Nice of
him.
Mr. Barnes wants us to come back and finish the cemetery. He said he
would
be working on getting it cleaned up.

Bud,
I am so glad that this has blown over. I guess you and Donna won't be
going
to jail after all! :-)
