Long Cove

Heading north to Goldthwaite on highway 183 from Lampasas, you will see a sign that points down this old country road saying "Long Cove Cemetery". Now, Rob and I love exploring old country roads and as most don't have an official cemetery sign on it, we figured we needed to check it out. We weren't disappointed. 

I don't know the name of the road, but you take it a lot further than you think you will. You'll begin to think after going through so many twists and turns, that the point of that sign is to say you'll meet your end before you make it there. That it ends in a cove, people end you and leave you there. But no, it's actually a beautiful final resting place for a few early settlers, some Civil War soldiers, even a few WW1 and 2 soldiers. You have to call Greg for interment, but there's still room if you're looking!

Have a great weekend everyone. More next week!
