The fact that you and Spooky were treated so rudely at Swan Point still boggles my mind. Here in my part of the world, I've never heard of anyone being hassled for visiting the grave of Lovecraft's friend, Robert E. Howard. Perhaps because in this uptight "Christian" area, no one thinks we're out to steal Bob's soul? (Or perhaps they figure he's beyond theft, seeing as how he chose to end his own life, and they do cast rather a jaundiced eye on such as that.)
