    1. The Auld Kirk of Nairn Cemetery (a little off topic)

    3. I have just returned from my very first visit to Scotland and I have never seen such beauty in my lifetime. We stayed in Dallas for a week and traveled down Loch Ness to research family in the Kilmarnock area. The "natives" were outstanding! I shall never forget the experience. Unfortunately, I found that the above-referenced cemetery has fallen victim to vandalism. Although the powers that be have locked up the cemetery, when I visited, teenagers were playing ball against the ruins of the old church. Broken beer bottles everywhere. From what I understand, the church dates to 1658. Is there anything I can do from the US to protect this site? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
