It does sound like a nice spot.
I'm reminded of one of the first rides I took with a couple who have since become my frequent riding buddies and friends, but at the time I hardly knew them. They were planning to ride past my house on the way to visit the grave of their aunt, who had passed a few months earlier, and invited me along. It struck me a little weird too, but it was a pretty day and a nice ride. We stopped at the cemetery, had a Clif bar and went on.
I hope "green burial" becomes more acceptable by the time it's my turn. It really bothers me that what should be the final natural process of returning my body to the earth that nourished it, instead is super toxic. There are no cemeteries anywhere near me that allow non-embalmed burial, and I can't see that the carbon cost of transporting my body someplace that does allow it, could possibly be any less than cremation.
