ReplyDeleteGoodness gracious - look at all that Kudzu!!
ReplyDeleteI'm always interested in reading the stones in cemeteries. Over the weekend, we visited the first memorial to soldiers killed in WWI.
ReplyDeleteOld cemeteries I do love visiting, the headstones either tell a story or add questions, I remember the kudzu vines growing all over the place when I was growing up, heck we were afraid of falling asleep outside for fear of it covering us over.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful shots and a popping dog, too. :) I like the cemetery MOM and DAD stones, too...but what's up with that first pic, Juanny? Too funny!
ReplyDeleteFirst off, if someone would develop a way to use kudzu as food, it would start disappearing rapidly!
ReplyDeleteOld cemeteries are awesome and I love to take explore them. Come to think of it, I like cemeteries in general. I find them very calming. I don't know if you know this, but I'm actually a Kentucky child. I was only born in California because my dad was stationed there. Anyway, the Frankfort, Ky cemetery is AWESOME and is my favorite so far. BTW, Daniel Boone is buried there...
I used to like to do Charcoal copies of the Old Grave Stones. Then I found out about Cameras!! I do Love them.
ReplyDeleteI remember Charlton Heston's famous line from Soylent Green : "You bitch!" No , wait--that's not it, it was:
"Kudzu, KUDZU IS PEOPLE!!!"
LOL Jimmy! Thx Jeannie and Kelly! Hiya RK!!!!!
Ily- It was just one of those accidental clicks. Totally an accident. Glad that Camera bag was in the way! I had just taken the camera out on the start of the trek!
I knew TILLETT was a Country Boy--I just knew it!
