The easiest way to get here is to go US62 East from Lubbock, then turn L onto Lubbock CR 3900. Make a R on a dirt road to the cemetery (look for tall juniper trees). If you get to FM 1527 you have gone too far.
Of course, this was NOT the way Blasterz went - but we got to see nice vineyards, a pheasant, some prairie dogs, and about a million Sandhill Cranes as we circled the cemetery on dirt roads.
This beautiful brown Woodmen of the world tombstone for J. W. Bryant caught our eye because it looks like the tombstone has been freshly carved with woodworking tools. We have not seen one where the peeled-off tree bark is left at the bottom of the marker. It truly is striking.
The tombstone reads as follows:
Erected by the
Woodmen of the World
[Medallion]
J. W. Bryant
1850 + 1900
He died as he lived --
a Christian
Was the inscription legible?: Yes
