Lets talk about LEAVES: Did you know leaves can be very helpful in cemetery
searches? You can do this in the Fall. I have found this for many years. Wait
till all the leaves are down. Maybe a couple rains and some wind, later. Go to
a cemetery and you will find many graves that are unmarked. Leaves detect the
outline of a old burial and rest on top of the graves. They work very well to
make a rectangle of leaves on top of unmarked grave. Some chance there may have
been a wooden marker there at one time but they don't have a long life span. So
the leaves can help find graves you didn't know were there.
