We were camping at Fort Parker State Park and traveling back to the park after visiting some friends in Jewett, so my wife graciously agreed to stop at a few cemeteries along the way. There was a thunderstorm the night before, so the cemetery was waterlogged. I was able to find a way to get to the marker without soaking my shoes too badly.
The rain was over on this day, but later that night, the area would experience a severe wind storm.
