What a turnout! What a neighborhood! More
than 40 people showed up at the cemetery at 8 AM this morning.
The manly men with
their power tools made short work of the massive magnolia dead-fall. Don't you
love the sound of chainsaws in the morning?!
The ladies raked
leaves, bagged leaves, trimmed bushes and sago palms and dragged the cut timber
and all those bags of leaves to the street. And the children happily
participated in cleaning headstones after we all thoroughly enjoyed the
presentation in stone restoration and cemetery
archaeology given by Emily Jane Murray, the Public Archaeology Coordinator for
the Florida Public Archaeology Network out of Flagler College.
Thank You Emily!
We will get the city
to pick up the huge piles of debris the first part of
the week.
Exciting upcoming event at the cemetery: A Memorial Day Flag Ceremony.
May 20th @ 9 AM. Watch this space for details.
