If you notice a patch of unmowed grass on the east side of the cemetery, please bare with us. A momma kildeer has made a nest there with four eggs she is hatching. Bob will get it mowed as soon as the babies hatch and move on with their lives. In the meantime Mama Kildeer will put on quite a show for you trying to distract you and lead you away from her nest. Video in comments.

Flowers have been cleared off the graves for the upcoming mowing season. If you have a thick layer of mulch around your tombstone or flowers in vases attached to the stone your flowers have not been removed. Some of the mulched stones need to be refreshed as the mulch layers are getting too thin to keep the grass from growing through and need your attention this season.
