This place has really gone downhill. The stove is gone out of the house, as well as the tombstones that were in there, the chandelier is gone, and there are holes EVERYWHERE! Also the front porch is about to fall down, and oddly, the original couch has been replaced with another one. No one is taking care of most of the grounds either anymore. The roads are pretty overgrown, especially the one that runs parallel to McDonnell. It's so sad.

Well you should probably do it soon because I'm suprised it's still standing honestly. I've been all the way upstairs, but I've never been in the basement.

She did an exciting slide down the stairs too. :lol: :wink:

Yes I did. Word of advice... Move the damn door before you go up there because it doesn't serve a purpose whatsoever.

I just heard on the news that this 7-year-old boy's casket is in such bad shape that his remains are showing. When I took these pics over a year ago, I didn't see them (and trust me, I looked). They plan on moving him to another cemetery so if you wanna check it out better go soon!! It's morbid but I know I'm not the only one who is curious. I am thinking about going tonight when hubby gets home actually. :lol:

I can't believe I never posted these. Must have been slackin'. 8) I can't even remember when he died but they said on the news it was almost 91 years ago.

Bones, teeth, and hair. That's enough for me :)
