Ball Knob Cemetery on Christmas Eve

January 13, 2017February 9, 2022 bigbertha

Here’s a look at my favorite cemetery on Christmas Eve. I don’t know if vandals knock the tombstones down or if the tombstones fall apart after so many years. Either way, I like to honor the deceased by visiting their … Continue reading Ball Knob Cemetery on Christmas Eve
