Jesse and I started walking together in the mornings. Good, long walks that are keeping us in shape physically and helping us mentally as well. We have always been talkers and the only way the two of us can have a decent conversation is by leaving the house without any children :) Thank goodness that Athena and Huckleberry are so very capable of taking care of their little sisters. Perhaps they see how much the walks are keeping us sane!

We found a Green way a neighborhood or two over that must run a couple of miles long. It is a paved path that follows the electricity lines from Falls Of Neuse just about all the way to the New Falls of Neuse. We have been walking it for a couple of days now, even brought the girls in the double stroller while Huckleberry rode his bike yesterday. Today though, I happened to notice the graveyard in the above picture. It is undeniably old with some of the stones dating back to 1790. There is even information there about the cemetery and how it is the descendants of the original white families that settled in the area.

The strange part is that this cemetery is hidden behind the long line of shrubbery that lines the road nearby. Never mind the enormous electrical lines and support structures. A hidden cemetery is a strange find among this large rolling neighborhoods of organized classist communities. Perhaps they don't really want anyone to remember who came here before.
