Looky Loo

I failed to mention that Aryn and I stopped in Colorado City on our way home Sunday to gawk at the polygamist community. It's horrible, I'm a bit embarrassed yet we did it anyway. I really just like looking at the dresses the women wear. We stopped in the cemetery and found this gravestone. Every mans dream, huh? Notice the heaps of dirt in the background? Those are plots where people are buried. Do you think they bury them 6 ft under and do that for dramatic effect or are they on top of the ground just covered with dirt? What happens when it rains?

OH my heck, everytime I drive by there, I go there. It is so interesting. I cant help but be curious, and so sad. That headstone is a little ironic right? Who knows, maybe he WAS a good man, didnt know any better? Trying to look on the bright side only made me feel sick :(

OH I'm totally a Looky Lu, too, and would most likely drive through there if I were in the area. I love that you posted this.

I hope they are buried under the ground and not just laying on top. That would be a little weird for when it rained....:)
