One of the best parts of my job is that I am not restricted to just one part of town. I get to see many different neighborhoods and am often looking for new and interesting shortcuts.
Today I was late for a meeting (because I thought I had enough time to get a quick grab in before work), so I was looking for a creative cut thru. I ended up driving right past Glenville Cemetery that I had never seen nor heard of. I didn't have time to stop (heck, I didn't really have time to read the name on the sign by this point!), but I made sure to come back after my meeting.
What an interesting peaceful place in the middle of a typical urban landscape. Glenville Cemetery is a Jewish cemetery dating back to 1887. It does not appear to be an active cemetery, though it is well maintained. There are no posted hours, but the gates are locked sometime in the afternoon. It is being tended by a congregation in Pepper Pike and was the original cemetery of the Temple of the Heights (aka The Civic in Cleveland Heights on Mayfield Road). As with most Jewish cemeteries, I am assuming that the gates will be locked on Saturdays.
You are looking for a matchstick container. Please be respectful of your surroundings. The cache is not placed near any markers and is just a few feet off the drive.
