I had an old friend who was to honeymoon in Ferndale. I told him to be sure to see the graveyard. He told that to his soon to be wife who thought I was morbid until the Ferndale brochure arrived in the mail that extolled the graveyard. They went and saw it.
I have been by the cemetery many times but I have yet to visit the Ferndale museum as they keep erratic hours. It is small but filled with neat old stuff according to my daughter’s husband who was born and raised there. Did your friends stay at the Victorian Inn?
