A visit to the cemetery this afternoon brought several interesting images but I was compelled to pick this one. We have no family at this cemetery but it close to our home and a nice quiet, peaceful and quite interesting place to walk. We find that there is a lot of history in a cemetery. You see 100 year old head stones and new ones too. (The headstone shaped like a motorcycle???) You see how back in the day the wife/woman was listed as "wife of" or "daughter of". It is amazing to see how long people lived or how short their lives were. And the names of those people from 100 years ago, so interesting! You wonder if there is still family around to visit the older graves. It's also amazing to see how we cherish the ones we have lost, the flowers, the teddy bears, the angels watching over them. A very interesting place to visit.
