Love those pictures. Where were they taken? Lizzie's house.

Gee, don't we all look like just regular people?
You'd never really know we were Bordenites!

That's Doug Parkhurst BTW! (At the end of the seating).
Finally a picture of Doug!

That is at the lecture hall at the First Congregational Church on Rock Street.

That's the Real McCoy Snokkums. With Stefani's headlights pointed at us.

That was a fascinating experience being there at night. Stef, Kat and Kash are a lot of fun to be with and we went there not knowing whether the gate at the main entrance would be open but it was.

If you look close (on either side of the Borden stone) those stones if I remember right are for the Almy family. Almy was Andrew's partner in business and in some land holdings.

Oak Grove is quite large and when we drove around it in the daylight in search of Bertha Manchester's stone we recognized many familiar names somehow linked to the Borden tragedy. Oak Grove is a definite must if you go to Fall River.

Thanks Harry, you're right; Oak Grove at night is an unforgettable experience. And during the day it's one of the few, if only, places today where you can walk around extensively, outdoors, and things are pretty much as they were in Lizzie's time. It's easy to imagine her walking next to you (If you think like I do...)
It is a very cool stone Snokks-I agree ;0)
