Grandpa Kraus

We found Grandpa Kraus' grave and surprise it was right next to Grandma's but we had to dig it out because it was under about 3 inches of grass and lots of dirt.    We spent the first 40 min. just looking for it and praying for direction ( thanks Lord !)  and then the next hour plus digging the marker out and cleaning up both of them with the tire iron from the car!  I  should have known better and came prepared with a shovel, but I didn't even think about it.   Joe noticed that his birth month was wrong.  apparently he and a lot  of other guys lied about their birthday's so they could go in the military early.       After this we went over to his cousin's house for dinner and visiting around the fire like old times and talked about camping and escapades done during camping in the Allegheny mountains!
