Hello All, we went on a scouting trip to check out some cemeteries in our area for possible investigations. Well out of about 5 we tried to find, we only found 1. But it turned out to be a good one. We finally found this one down a little dirt goat trail. It is an old cemetery in bad shape. A lot of the graves are sunk in. It was hard to get pics of that but I found one that was full of water, that one is included below. After we got back home and started reviewing the pics, the first one I took is the one below with the orb above the headstone (Cool huh). Then when I got to the one with Gayla looking at a headstone and looked to her left, I got a chill. Take a look and tell me your opinion.

Sunken grave, this is how a lot looked.

First pic after I steped out of the truck.

Startling pic, we were the only ones out there, no one else was around.

We can't wait to be able to get back out there some night and do a real investigation, although we are a little bit worried about walking around in there in the dark, with so many of the graves being sunk down like they are. Would really really hate to fall into, or worse yet (shudder) through one of the graves.

Here is a link to a cemetery info page on Slate Branch Cemetery

Happy Hunting All.

Thanks, this place really had a erie feeling. I also forgot to mention, when we got home, we were discussing what to have for supper. Gayla had planed on cooking ribs, but we decided it was to late. We both plainly heard someone whisper under their breath "sh*t". We both looked at each other and questioned each other if the other one had said it. Neither of us had. I guess we weren't the only ones disappointed about the ribs.

Right after this I remembered I should have taken the voice recorder on the scouting trip.

They say there are 3 signs of old age, memory lose is one.....I can't remember what the other 2 are. 😆

And Tim, yes its been raining here a lot lately, most of the afternoon Thursday (when we had originally planed to go on the scouting trip), and most of the morning before the trip. Lightning struck a tree on our road and busted the water main, no water for half a day.
