Geocache Description:

Love this tree and love this cemetery for a lot of reasons. There has been some vandalism in the past, so having some trusting Geocacher’s visiting and doing CITO will not hurt.

Tucked away at the top of the hill on your way to or from Mt Vernon, this cemetery used to be a Farm way back when. Please take a moment to read some of the War Veterans names at the entrance and the plaque on the flagpole that is dedicated to my father. There used to be a some trees growing up that we called “The Trunkless Trees”. See if you can spy one or two of them. They where there at the placement of the cache, but looked like some trucks might be doing some cutting.

This cache was placed with permission of Campbell (Berry) Cemetery.
**As always, please use proper care and respect when visiting this cache.**
