Hi I located a webpage that I thought might be of interest. I have taken the tour and really liked it. There is a small graveyard in front of the school which is still visited. Apparently there is a custom of leaving items on the gravestones and that is how I know it is still visited. regards debi http://home.epix.net/~landis/tour.html __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
