The end of the line! by happypat

The end of the line!

I had really hoped to get out & take a 'live' photo today but we've been so busy with B&B stuff that I haven't been able to get out all day!
Cabin fever I think!

The weather is glorious & the same all week so hopefully I can move on from my holiday snaps.

This is Melbourne General Cemetery & believe me this isn't one fifth of it, it goes on forever!
Taken from the top of a tour bus.

Three good things:
1. A gift of some fresh salmon for our tea!
2. All washing dried & then ironed by me. Thank goodness I have a sit down iron, it means I can do my bit to help.
3. Lots of lovely visitors.
Lovely capture but a very grave experience. Ironing - what's that when you can put the clothes under the mattress. (Wink)

@ladymagpie If I could lift the mattress Heather!

Wow that's a shot we didn't see! Glad you're able to do some stuff and that Harry is doing so well!

@ladymagpie ha ha Heather! Maybe one of those graves holds the bones of the famous Ned Kelly of whom John's grandparents had a story to tell! "Robbed trains and coaches without fear" sings John!

A grave sight -- what a huge cemetery !!

Oh, we will all be but a headstone marking our days as well. The important ones - Date of birth and date of death - and it's up to us to fill the lines in between.

BTW - people are dying to get in there!

@farmreporter @beryl Ha ha ladies, really clever comments!

It really is a huge cemetery isn't it. We say that it is in the 'dead centre of Melbourne'

So many graves squeezed in - an amazing sight.

@onewing Ha ha Babs, great title! Just wished I could have got more of the width but a quick photo on my iPhone!

This may sound morbid but I find andering around old graveyards quite fascinating. This is rather well occupied.

@kiwinanna Me too Liana!

This is quite some cemetry. I too like wandering around cemetries reading the gravestones.
