They sound wonderful. And what an interesting time you are having researching the gravestones. They really tie in to your philosophy of 'make the most of life for it will soon be over'. I can see why this is becoming your "latest craze". Personally, I think you simply like to throw yourself into something and really understand it. What a day! (This & the botanical gardens). That is even more than me going to the bookstore and the Tiki hut at Lucas Boatworks yesterday!!!!! <br />We do not have any gravestones as old as what you are finding. i will be lucky if I see any from the early 19oo's or late 18oo's behind our house. keep us apprised! xo lennacreativelennahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14423287061796125942noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3569867727430293660.post-37165915018481180732011-06-26T14:40:10.822+00:002011-06-26T14:40:10.822+00:00Frieda, I love your posts on graveyards!

We do not have many graveyards here in the US with stones that old. I will see if I can did up (Ha!) some photos of older gravestones from here and send you some to see. I don't think they had the stone carvers here that they did in the UK at the time. So they are much more simple.<br />Glad to see you are out and about having fun! Your Artist Way course sounds fabulous.<br />Hugs,<br />TerriTerrihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08308857175275747562noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3569867727430293660.post-15827798120696422612011-06-25T19:39:06.961+00:002011-06-25T19:39:06.961+00:00I often visit graveyards...they are a personal lin...I often visit graveyards...they are a personal link to history.
