I'm drawn to them.
Be it one of the largest sprawling sites in New England or a small one lost on a country road hemmed in with a white picket fence. As you can see by this image, there's still a lot of brown around, but white is fading away. We might get a spring yet. Here's hoping.
I too love cemeteries, especially the older ones, and I'm always in search of cemetery angels. I have photos of the cemetery I mentioned to you yesterday on my blog today.
ReplyDeleteKeep the faith, baby! Yesterday we had an unbelievable temperature of 70 degrees! We raced to our car, jumped in and took a spin down along the Mississippi River, even tho the landscape is still brown. The weather has been very capricious but right now at 6:30 am it is already 52 degrees. . . there is hope for all of us. The next time you pass that cemetery it's going to be GREEN!!
ReplyDeleteI too am attracted by cemeteries .Interesting to see how different yours and mine are .
ReplyDeleteSummer reached us this week-end . So , sending you some sun !
Love this white picket fence in a calm and peaceful place. Wishing you spring green soon.
ReplyDeleteHave a blessed day!

I love cemeteries lots of history in them and interesting stuff.
ReplyDeleteyup, you're just teasing me by posting a fence that you won't link up to good fences on thursday. paying me back for all my ADORABLE squirrels... :)
ReplyDeleteHow white the fence is against the still somewhat drab colors. We are seeing more green here on the ground, changes in this last week (since the last snow, haha!)
ReplyDeleteI imagine we are all "drawn" to the sooner or later. ;-)
ReplyDeleteOf course you will. Nothing is eternal, not even winter in Maine...
ReplyDeleteI like cemeteries, also. It's fun to note the gravestones and speculate who the people were, what they were like, etc. Nice fence. You do know why they put fences around cemeteries, right? They have to. People are just dying to get in!
ReplyDeleteCemeteries may be interesting and also beautiful sometimes...
ReplyDeleteI have my fingers crossed for you!
ReplyDeleteIt is warm here and the crocuses are coming out so spring has finally arrived. I hope it lasts!
ReplyDeleteI think the quiet country ones have the most appeal to me.
ReplyDeleteSorry about the Bruins... I would have rather saw them get in over Pittsburgh. If the Penguins had been playing anyone but Buffalo, they'd have lost.
Speaking of cemeteries... my Bruins are DEAD. Good luck to your Sens in the Playoffs.
DeleteAfter your winter I bet that the green won't waste a minute popping out.
ReplyDeleteUnusual contrast between the lichen-covered old gravestones and that very new-appearing fence.
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean. There's that mixture of romance and creepyness that just draws me in.
ReplyDeleteThe white picket fence is so perky compared to what's around it. It works like the River Styx, dividing the living and the dead.
ReplyDeleteI agree with Jack.
ReplyDeleteI also love exploring cemeteries. The weirdest moment I ever had was when I found a gravestone in Montreal with my name on it... although quite a few years older than me!
ReplyDeletei love them too...i just went walking through one yesterday afternoon, it was so pretty out!
ReplyDeleteThat's a lovely photo.
