Kentucky Veterans Cemetery Northeast

 

September 2021

     I have been tardy with the post…I have been traveling around the USA for about a month now. Seeing things and experiencing things day by day. I can’t even put it in words how blessed and grateful I am for the ability to go and share… all of it sigh.. Our country is an amazing place!!

     I was camping at a KOA in Argillite, Kentucky and I could hear bells, as in a bell tower. I did not think much of it until I pulled out of the campground and there was the Kentucky Veterans Cemetery Northeast, Argillite, Greenup Co., Kentucky. See Pictures here https://photos.app.goo.gl/aLPWm97mKRSs1Vgx5

The cemetery is pristine, maintained beyond perfection, I took some time and walked around. My research shows that Kentucky has five veteran cemeteries. The first opened in 2004. The total interments 12, 357. Giving so much for our country, a beautiful resting place honoring them in death.
