01/06/08 Cloverhurst // Athens // Georgia: The old Athens Cemetery is actually in the middle of the UGA campus and for years you weren't allowed to go inside it. Corrinne and I were walking around campus this morning and noticed that it's finally open to the public and there's been some effort to restore it. It's kind of sad that whoever owned it previously let it get to the point it's at -- pretty rundown and very few headstones still intact.
