I’ve not been posting for a while, just been caught up in daily life.
I thought I’d update a little on one of my favorite activities, old graveyards. I’ve been spending a little of my spare time researching and checking out some of the older cemetaries in the local area.
For those who don’t know, I actually have a blog on the subject and try and post some good pictures of some of the older and more interesting stones. That blog is HERE. I am an official member of the graveyard rabbit association whose links can be found over on the other blog.
Recently I have located and checked out a Roman Catholic Lithuanian cemetary which in fact is not as old as some of my favorite haunts but interesting just the same. The majority of the older graves there were in the 1940’s although I found a handful of earlier ones.
I also checked out a couple of sites in Hudson, NH. One had stones as far back as the early 1700’s, the other was mostly 1800’s and newer. It amazed me that the newer cemetery seemed very unkempt dispite burials I saw as late as 2008. The grass was high and uncut. How sad.
Anyway, I try and post on the other blog at least once a month and I have a few visits behind me that I haven’t posted on. In the near future I am thinking of hitting places such as Portsmouth NH or Salem Ma where I know I could find some of the older (oldest?) burial sites in the country.
For those who visit often, you are aware of my cemetery blog and membership in the Graveyard Rabbit Association. If not, you can find my blog HERE.
This month, on May 7th, my “Intro/Bio” will be featured on the main Association Blog page. After the 7th feel free to read it.
