When I saw your title, I thought this was about the tourist trap in Kansas.
This is actually poignant.

Very nice. There is something about those small gravesites that tells a story.

They do. It's interesting to wander around and read the gravestones. Thanks for commenting.

Thanks! The image is (I think) of one families plot but it's actually a real cemetery with over 100 graves, many from the late 1800s and the most recent I saw was 1980. The area is dotted with similar small cemeteries. This one is quite literally on a small hilltop in the middle of the wheat fields. Just a one land dirt track to it that's closed during the wet part of the year.

I don't think so. It's the Riggs Cemetery near Rosalia, WA. you can look it up on Find a Grave. Thanks for commenting.
