Hi Kuri,

I would love to go to this.  We are going over the next weekend for a  
Convention.
I just looked up Simison-Hale  on the internet and they called it a  
"Neglected" cemetery.  The  owner has not allowed us on the property  
in the three years she has lived there.  However the property just  
sold and she is no longer there.  We are hoping that the new owners  
are more friendly.
Have a good time.

Judy DeSpain, secretary for the Miller, Simison-Hale, Allphin Cemetery  
Association
