Cemetery 1 by mittens

Cemetery 1

My husband and I drove through a very pretty cemetery so I took a bunch of pictures there and I may show a little series of them.

Thank you so much for your encouraging comments and favs.
Don't you wonder about the history of the people being memorialized by these beautiful monuments? It is interesting to meander through cemeteries, especially the older parts of them. Looking forward to seeing more of what you captured.

Wow! Somebody was well loved! Or had a small fortune! This is lovely indeed!

lovely shot - when I was a child I had a fascination for cemeteries as I had a very vivid imagination and I conjured up in my mind all sorts of things about the people buried there. There was a particularly old headstone and I imagined that the grave was that of a pirate! It makes me sound a bit of a nutcase doesn't it! LOL

@rosiekind Thank you Rosie. No, it doesn't sound crazy at all. Sounds like fun to try to guess about the people buried in cemeteries.

@essiesue Thank you Sue. I do wonder about the history of people whose names I see on the headstones.
