This part of the Cemetery was part of Syringa Gardens. All of the headstones in this section are flat.
		The military section of Syringa Gardens. Notice how the farms have turned to subdivisions, and the once quite and remote area is becoming busier and busier.
		View looking West. Between the trees in the center of the photo, and the pine trees on the right, you can see the old Highway 55, or commonly called Horseshoe Bend Highway. It has turned from a semi-quiet country highway to a busy surburban street.
		Another view looking North from within the Syringa Gardens section. The Military section is in the background.

		There are benches everywhere. Notice the barrenness outside of cemetery, where it receives only rainwater. As we are considered high desert, that is very little.
		These bushes are found in several older sections of the cemetery.
		A view through the eastern part of the cemetery, showing some of the older tall headstones at a distance.

		Wonderfully soothing waterfall, located next to the office.
