The above shot shows the Domanpot road ( marked with a red A ) and the irrigation road. I guess on the eastern side of the road would be Dumaquit and some where in that clump of houses would be the family home of Marcie and Juliet. I had the chance to visit it last 2009 when Juliet came home again.
C is a plantation of mango trees owned by Sen. Shahani. B is that road going to Cabincolan. D is the residence of the Deocares family..
This is an aerial shot of the Asingan cemetery. The Catholic cemetery is near the top of the photo. You can see the small road leading to this section of the cemetery. On this road you can see a small shanty belonging to some homeless people with nowhere to go. One of them hacked the way for us to the Northeastern corner of this area so I was able to see my parents tombs.
In a short time, I am afraid there will be another group of shelters in here. At least the old BANGAR TREE is already gone. That is the most haunted place in Asingan when we were still kids.. Lots of stories concerning rolling coals, puppies that morph into different animals ( a pig, then a horse ) or a big white bird that would appear and dissapear on a high branch( now you see it, now you don't ). And do not forget the story of the lady in white who hitched a ride on a tricycle one midnight in Poblacion asking the operator to bring her to Macalong. When they reached the cemetery, she asked the operator to stop. She got out and showed her bandaged and blood smeared face to the operator. The operator almost went bananas running and screaming and leaving his tricycle behind---#
