As far as local cemeteries go, this one is "new to the neighborhood" having been sculptured out of a meadow, hence the name.

I have posted a photo of the cemetery rules, but they seem to be fairly flexible with these "rules".

They were…read morewonderful, even following up with the cemetery down in Seymour and making sure the headstone carver is scheduled to get her headstone carved, timely. They were good on the counseling and the little details that can make or break a service, and the service was dignified and meaningful, even in Covid times, with their videographer doing a great job. The video is posted for 90 days after the service, too, which is an important "extra," for people who could not make it to the service or the live streaming. We were very pleased.

My girlfriend and I visited the Farm at Prophetstown this weekend after checking out the Tippecanoe…read moreBattlefield Museum earlier in the day and realizing this was right down the road. The site is a working farm depicting 1920s farm life, complete with two homes that were built from kits the original owners ordered from the Sears, Roebuck & Co. catalog. They're fully furnished with period-appropriate materials and visitors can browse through at their leisure. There's also a barn for the animals and a blacksmith shop. We had a quick visit because it was a cold, rainy March day, but the animals were a particular highlight. The farm houses were neat, but I think we would have enjoyed them more if we'd visited when there were historic interpreters to discuss the buildings and their contents. Still, a nice afternoon trip.

I find the farm to be so delightful. We went on a "Meet the animals" day, and I got to meet all…read moresorts of critters! So what if I was the only adult there without a child. Don't judge me. I love that all their animals are rescued and rehomed, and they emphasize that mission while still using age-appropriate language. For example, adults can tell that the female mini horse is a rescue and came from a bad situation, but kids just know she's skittish. That's just about perfect. I also appreciate that I know that none of the animals (in particular, the cows and chickens) are going to be dinner for anyone. I recommend following their social media. They tend to give announcements about events, as well as generally let you know what's going on with the animals at the farm.

Thank you Jonathan and staff for helping us send our loved one off.

I'll be the first to admit that most of my experiences with Wesley Manor Retirement Community have…read morebeen rather casual. In other words, I've visited residents and, in one case, visited one resident multiple times while also having the opportunity to utilize the Wesley Manor walking trail while on a Tenderness Tour awareness event in Frankfort. Wesley Manor is an 83-acre retirement campus. It's operated by a non-profit organization and associated with the United Methodist Church. Wesley Manor offers a wide range of residential options ranging from independent living to Memory Care. They have an indoor swimming pool, fitness center, a greenhouse, and even the only bowling alley in Clinton County. Wesley Manor is right next to Frankfort Commons, a golf course, and residents can golf there for free. The key friend who I had who resided at Wesley Manor began in the assisted living area before eventually moving to the skilled nursing area where she passed away. She resided at Wesley Manor quite a bit longer than most people do reside in retirement communities, but the visits I had were always positive and she was for the most part well cared for throughout her time (It likely did help that her son was quite involved). As noted, they have a walking trail that was quite wheelchair friendly even on the day I arrived when it was horridly rainy and gross. I was with my friend whose mother lived at Wesley Manor and we were able to visit (pre-Covid) without any difficulty. A visit to Wesley Manor reveals that facility quality really depends on where you're staying. There's a much older building, which is where my friend lived, while the independent living areas seem to be much newer and more up-to-date. I didn't really mind the older building, but there is little denying that it has a more institutional feeling to it. I think it speaks volumes about quality of care when someone does live for quite a while in a setting - the environment and people at Wesley Manor seemed to always be positive and empowering. As a person with a disability myself, it's always challenging because you want a setting that both honors limitations yet still believes in a person's ability. It seems like for the most part that's what happens here. I miss being able to visit here and I haven't done another event in Frankfort recently, but I remember fondly my visits here and the care and compassion shown to multiple friends. While some of the facilities are undeniably older, overall you have quality facilities and staff for those in need.
