In the past I've driven by here quite often. I never would have stopped here if it weren't for waymarking, I'm glad I finally had an excuse to.
The park is shaped like a pizza wedge. The hours are 6am to 10pm. There are quite a few different items to see and take photos of. There is a lot of information in this little tiny park. Look at this park on the map to get a feel for the shape and size.
The only parking I found close to it is on the left (west) side of this wedge heading south. Also, while you are here, look from the top of the wedge, across the road is an old cemetery. I don't think they are taking any new customers at this time.
The main stone is limestone. The individual service stones are black polished granite with lasar etching. There is one for each branch of the service. They are simply amazing. Check out the gallery.
