I had a long essay (well for me anyways) about these shots and the things I was thinking about, that just kind of vaporized when I thought I published it. Probably just as well since it was mostly depressing stuff, even to me. So… you get the pics without much commentary.

The Family plot with no headstones interested me. What a mystery. This picture looked Japanese to me…

Ann died about 20 years before her husband Josiah, now they are spending eternity together, and gradually their stones are going to be over-whelmed by the forces of nature, as they were…

A cast concrete stone, as nearly as I could tell. She died in the depression. I’m guessing this was all that was affordable.

An outhouse in a graveyard just seemed funny to me. I got over it when I noticed I liked the shapes, colors and shadows .

A picture of a sparrow, going about his life, not knowing, caring or wondering about the historys of the people buried all around. There was a pretty blue lizard on one of the trees in another family plot.. same thing…. 

This was in the graveyard I was at last week. Someone must have had to replace the one side of the fence here. It took me a while to notice it. Look at the difference in the tops… gotta wonder about the story . I liked the shapes either way.
