We buried both of my parents a year ago in this beautiful little cemetary tucked away on a hill in southern Ohio. When I was a kid it was such a drag to go with my parents to visit graves, but now I honor them. My husband says we all deserve a little piece of ground, and I'm so glad my parents made sure we all have ours in such a lovely spot. I was just thinking, when my sister told me it's snowed up there, that I want to go put a comfy quilt on their graves. Imagine cemeteries like that, with quilts and photos and favorite things, and nobody would take them.LoPohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13654988436386324309noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2086296370004835655.post-80398090768344345962008-12-07T21:02:00.000-05:002008-12-07T21:02:00.000-05:00:) It's really beautiful there, Ms. Moon.

I used to find them morbid, and I just don't anymore. Maybe it's because I have plenty of people waiting for me on the other side, or maybe I'm just growing up. Loved the pictures, Mrs. Moon.

And get this- right after I wrote that thing about water being magic, a main blew and because we do live in Lloyd- I seriously doubt they'll do anything about it until tomorrow.<BR/>No water. At least not running out of my pipes.<BR/><BR/>Nannygoat- yes, on everything you said. We ARE lucky.<BR/><BR/>Ms. Pimpalishisness- thank-you for dropping by! And you may be right. Sort of a still-born thing, rather than a corpse. At least old houses have a grace about them. <BR/><BR/>SJ- come on down!

I think it's the pace we're genetically programmed to go.<BR/><BR/>The cemetery could be a family one. In West Virginia, you can be buried on your own property, and when you drive out in the hollows, it's not uncommon to see clusters of grave markers right near a home. Seems much more personal to me, keeping the ones who've gone before us nearby.<BR/><BR/>And how nice to have Mr. Moon back home, especially with no more venison to process. Sometimes the only reason I will agree to leave my home is for the pure joy of returning to it. <BR/><BR/>Aren't we lucky to feel that way -- to have homes that wrap their arms around us?Nannygoathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13405773491615300489noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2086296370004835655.post-39465975511572763802008-12-07T15:41:00.000-05:002008-12-07T15:41:00.000-05:00Maybe he really just didn't want to make more work...Maybe he really just didn't want to make more work for you wrapping all of that denison. ;) And how could he not be glad to be home with you and in such a lovely place as little Lloyd!
