I had a nice ride out to Hopkinsville after church, I took the bike because you don't get too many 75 degree days in November. The reason for the ride is I researched some geocaches in Christian County largest cemetery, Riverview.

The road entering the cemetary from the first entrance off of S. Virginia.

The half full trees and the colors were an interesting contrast against the sky.

I love the shadows of these place.

Amazing there was no one else, except for the caretaker on site.

The Hille plots, history all over the place.

World War I Memorial.

Edgar Cayce, the "Sleeping Prophet" is buried here somewhere. Guess he didn't see this coming.

Riverview also has a great number of Confederate Soldiers buried here as well.
You really want to know about your community, check out the cemetery for a real lesson.
