In my mind I had it all planned out. I was going to lead the boys where I “thought” the old cellar was and stumble upon it with ease and explore it……I was going to show my boys that I am THE KING…ahem…QUEEN of ADVENTURE. But, instead all I found was a groundhog and a pile of rocks…..and to top it all off, I ended up in an argument with my 10yr old son about beavers in Iowa.
(in my defense….it DID look more like a cellar from a distance)
And just so you know….nothing against the school system, but I’m pretty sure I’m correct. (Note to self: Google beavers in Iowa)
However, our day didn’t end with a complete fail….
Found out that Henry and Margaret Graeser were BRUTALLY murdered in their home and their house was burned.
The story is starting to unfold……
Here is the history of the cemetery by our house…..
All I have to say is I pretty much need an oxygen mask to get up the hill to the cemetery from Bluff road…I can’t IMAGINE having to carry a wooden casket up!!!
……stay tuned…..
