DAY 181: SCARIEST CAUTION SIGN EVER

It was just me and my camera at Lebanon National Cemetery when I came across this: possibly the scariest caution sign EVER.

*DANGER! OPEN GRAVE!*

Yikes.

Plus, I gather that at our National Cemetery, they dig a whole row-long 6 foot deep trench and then cover the entire cavern with wooden planks, sections of which are removed for each new burial of one of our Veterans. While expedient, I found this very surprising. I just never knew this.

And viewing the scene, I couldn't help but think of the old saying about "walking the plank"...which meant something really bad was in store (for a pirate, usually)...but from now on when I hear that phrase I'll also think of this.

Indeed. This truly is the scariest caution sign, ever.
