Taylor.jpg

This stone, which you may notice is in the shape of the state of Maine, is for my in-laws neighbor, Robert A. Taylor. Affectionately known as Rat. He and his wife Marjorie are Mainers. We enjoyed fresh tomatoes and blueberries from his gardens. Some of the best tomatoes I've even eaten!

It looks to be a cozy place to rest.

Buck.jpg

The famous Buck headstone. The whole legend arose after the stain appeared. Buck was, by historical accounts, a very good man, a boon to the community. But you just can't have a stone with a woman's leg on it and not start rumors! Legend has it that a witch dances on his grave.
