    Acacia Park is gorgeous.  I've wandered in here on my bike before, somewhat accidentally (I thought I would be able to connect with a path on the other side), and really enjoyed meandering around.  All of the headstones are on the ground, so it looks just like a forest unless you're looking at the ground.  There are lovely hills (though I didn't appreciate them on my bike), and I even ran into a turkey while I was in there.  It's private, it overlooks Fort Snelling, and it's just a really peaceful, quiet place to be.  I was recently at an interment here, and everything went smoothly, even in the snow.  They were playing a song on the bells and it was a really beautiful event.  Whether or not you have a reason to come here, just take a walk around it sometime.
