I love graveyards. To me they are the imagination's playground- places full of stories, mysteries, dreams, and ghosts. I suppose some might find my love of graveyard treks rather dark and macabre; however I doubt anyone could travel to Forest Hills Cemetery and not find some sense of beauty. From the pond full of frolicking ducks, to the knotted trees, to the random art tucked into corners- there are so many things to appreciate beyond the graves (Hmmm...didn't mean to have a pun here, but...). If you are interested in the graves though it is rather interesting to drive throughout the grounds and see the different styles of tombstones. I am interested in learning more about old burial customs so if anyone knows any good books on that I would be most appreciative.
