The Lighter Side / Re: Hallowe'en + graveyards

I worked as groundskeeper in a small rural cemetary and found much more than
gravestones. Often the commemorative plantings have over the years spread to
become large patches of regularly shorn yarrow, lilacs (2" tall), irises, and dianthus.
This is a pioneer cemetary in the Ottawa Valley, Ontario & still active.
Other cemetaries are like arboretums with fabulous old trees.
Great places to visit.
