My cousin Kate and John
like to take vacations around haunted places! They’ve been to a bunch! As a
believer myself I am fascinated by stories of hauntings. As far as I know I’ve
never seen a ghost but I did get a warning from a long dead friend that saved
mine and my 2 youngest daughter’s lives, but that’s a story for another day!
When Kate asked me if I wanted to go ghost hunting at a couple of local cemeteries
of course I said YES!

I don't remember the name of the church the cemetery was in but it was beautiful!
Some of the stones looked brand new, even though they were old. Kate told me they replaced some of the old, unreadable stones with newer ones.
I think the old, unreadable ones had more character!
I don't want to be buried, I want to be cremated but if someone leaves a marker and calls me
Sherry L. His Wife I'm going to come back and haunt them!
The church was really pretty.
The statues around the church were beautiful too!
We had a Grotto at the Catholic School I went to in first grade. This reminded me of that.
After the church we went on a path that is said to be haunted.
I thought the red mushrooms were awesome!

It was peaceful and beautiful there. Just in case any ghosts were listening I did apologize for the morons who use this beautiful lake as a garbage can though.
One experience I had while here that was a little unnerving,
I was sitting on a log enjoying the peace when a slight breeze came up.
As it passed I noticed one of the trees bending to the breeze.
ONE of the trees. The rest didn't seem to be effected by it.
I went and pushed on that tree, thinking its roots were not solid but it wouldn't budge!
Look! A gho... Oh, wait, that's Kate!
If we saw any ghosts
that day I didn’t know it but the feeling of presences was definitely in the
air!
Besides I love cemeteries, especially old ones! It made for another
enjoyable day with my cousin!
Had such a great time! The church was St James, it is one of the oldest Catholic churches around. Original was built in the 1800s. The lake was also sight of two mass killings.
