Pictures of the rest of the tones taken 7 November 2004

Go south of Oakland Mills on Franklin Avenue to 275th Street. Turn east on 275th, then north on Graham Avenue. Go almost to the old Faulker's bridge that used to cross over the Skunk River. On the left there is a farmer's lane. Take it west past a barn to the cemetery. Four wheel drive is needed unless you want to park near the barn and walk. You will see a large evergreen in the middle of the cemetery.
