       those who rest in the cemetery complex including hidden sym-  an umbrella. Uneven walking paths. No video or audio re-
       bolism, a murderer buried with her victims, feuding family mem-  cording allowed. Guide takes no responsibility for injuries
       bers, a Mardi Gras murder and one resident ghost! After the   incurred during tour.
       tour (approximately one hour), we will leave in our own cars and
       meet back up at the recently re-opened Carr Mansion to enjoy
       wine, snacks hosted by Proprietor Joellyn, and discuss what
       we've seen. (There will quite possibly be more talk of Island
       ghosts...just saying!)

       Guests should be able to walk comfortably for an hour long
       tour, and be aware of uneven sidewalks. Each adult guest will
       receive 2 tickets which may be exchanged for glasses wine when
       we meet at Carr.
