Cemeteries

While we were on our semi-getaway this old cemetery caught my eye. I think what I found interesting is the location....right smack dab in the heart of Rheinbeck. In fact, a parking lot somewhat surrounds it. A lot of the grave sites are in bad shape....but interesting nonetheless! I love cemeteries, I find them very calming. When I was much, much younger I would go to our local, beautiful cemetery, sit under a tree and study. It was beautiful due to the location...on a cliff of sorts with a river flowing by. Plus, my "peoples" were right there.... I use to think the branches of the old trees were arms protecting me.............Of course when it started to get dark the chicken factor crept in.....

Hey Lindy. I'm afraid I don't have the feelings you have for cemetaries. When I was a wild young girl, I was left in a cemetary all by my lonesome...in the middle of the night. SPOOKY!!!
