Log Excerpt: "This is in Laurel Cemetery (NHL), where we were years ago, apparently not being into Signers yet. Here things went downhill a bit. First, despite a GPS position matching where Find-a-Grave had it, we could not locate the plot, even with a picture from the web. Ken then started feeling unwell, and drove off to find the rest room. With a waypoint on native Google Maps I found the plot, and guided Ken back. The location is really nice, under big old trees on the day in great weather, overlooking the Schuykill River."
