SUPURB!!!!
5 levels of Vandalism covers it all.
Weed eaters and riding lawnmowers do as much damage as cattle.
It also covers farmers viewpoint, about weeds, liabilities and they are
payning property taxes. Certainly no excuse to destroy, but maybe
something can be done to save cemeteries and help them also. If weeds
were kept down and listings and photos were easily available, maybe ther
would not be as much traffic. But lets face it, how many times are these
cemeteries visited?? I think if I was a farmer and someone complained
about how their family graves were unkept, there would be another grave.
I also personally know of a farmer who could care less. He lets cattle
knock over stones and walk on them. There is a veteran of the Battle of
Tippaconoe in his cemetery.
Just trying to get some discussion going.
Scott, your 'What Happened' brought tears to my eyes.
