Geocache Description:


Ran across this cemetery a few weeks ago.  The road and property are state owned and for authorized personnel only.  However I did drive up in there and take a look.  It's very neatly kept and more graves than I would have thought.  I have a friend that used to work there and she told me that is where patients that passed away and no family ever claimed them were buried;  I thought that was so sad and so many.  She said way back when, the State Hospital was a pretty scary place, and family members would leave their loved ones there and never look back.  Very sad indeed.  Cache is outside the property but I thought it was a very interesting story about this cemetery.  you can see it from the edge of the road actually or from the parking lot of the nearby businesses.  Hope you enjoy this one.  Log only and bring your own pen.  Thanks for looking.  

Thanks to Grumpyoldtexan for being the FIRST TO FIND - Happy he got out early before the duststorm hit! Gotta love West Texas duststorm and tumbleweeds.
