Some of you already know how into cemetaries I am! They are interesting places, and some of them are really neat, photographically speaking. My great aunt Emily - who made it to almost 92 - used to have me take her to various cemetaries, to visit her friends and family... I think it was with her that I became so comfortable with being in such places.
Galveston's main cemetary was divided into two parts - I preferred the older section.
Some of the tombstones are so amazing and beautiful.
"Say not good-night, but in some brighter clime bid me good-morning."These are also good places to remember what gifts/people we need to constantly re-appreciate. As my grandpa (Auntie Em's brother) used to say (and probably a lot of other people have said it as well...!), "the only guarantee in life is change."
Nothing, and nobody, lasts forever...
The memorials for babies and youngsters are especially sad.
