Cockrell Cemetery
5/4/06---this was the most beautiful cemetery I have ever seen.  It was old, hidden, and off the beaten path
You wouldn't even know where it's at, unless someone pointed it out to you.
I had taken pictures of it, oddly though, none were on my digital camera.
many shades of green, hidden in and surrounded by trees... with a carpet of moss all around.
like in a fairy tale.. it was quiet and I was taken back by it's peacefulness.
quite a few of my family is buried here.
I hope it stays forever.
