Want a tour of a Marietta cemetery? Who wouldn't?

UNKOWN SOLDIERS MONUMENT (Brown Park): This memorial in Brown Park, right outside the entrance to the Marietta Confederate Cemetery, honors 1,000 of the approximately 3,000 Confederate soldiers buried in unnamed graves in the cemetery.

You're in luck if your version of a lovely Sunday is getting a historical tour of a cemetery.
Because Keep Marietta Beautiful and the Friends of Brown Park are "allowing citizens to step back in history and hear the tales of those interred," according to a Facebook post from the city of Marietta.
The tours run from 1:30 to 4 p.m at the Marietta Confederate Cemetery, 369 Powder Springs Road.
As if that wasn't enough: "Many of those buried at the cemetery will be portrayed by local reenactors and actual descendants."
Tickets are available on-site at $10 but $7 for seniors and students.
If that isn't your style, you can always see what's what at AccessAtlanta. As as for this weekend, check it out.
