There is a cemetery just down the road from my house and today I went there to take some pictures. I have this fascination with cemetery's and I think part of it is all the history.
Here are some photos I took today:
Overall today has been a good day, but something horrible did happen a few hours ago. I was sitting here with the window open when I heard what sounded like a cat fight in the woods. There are a million stray cats and I figured two of the cats were fighting. But the cries got louder and did not stop. When I opened my door I saw two dogs in the woods and I realized they were attacking one of the stray cats. I was literally paralyzed with fear and could not move. I knew at this point the cat was dead because the cries had stopped.
It was the most horrible thing I have ever seen and I can still hear the cat screaming. I wish people would be more responsible with their pets; both cat owners and dog owners.
That is awful.Being a cat owner and a dog owner I know how you feel I dont like to hear the stray cats fighting let alone two dogs picking on a cat
ReplyDeleteOhhhh. I really hate to hear that. My heart hurts right now. :'(
ReplyDeleteI love cemeteries, too. And I agree with you, it is the love of history. I like to walk and read and imagine the lives of those remembered in the stone. That is a pretty cemetery near you. I used to say I wanted to be buried there because of the beautiful rolling hills. Now I'd prefer cremation and being scattered. It's a great place to walk, too, isn't it?
yikes, how disturbing...beautiful photos of the graveyard...I especially love the one on top!
ReplyDeleteI love cemeteries too, imagining what sort of lives people had 100 years ago. The old headstones are the best, especially the ones with beautiful statutes.
ReplyDeleteMaybe the cat got away? I really want to think that!!!!
Statues, not statutes. I've been watching too much CourtTV.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos. You are a very skilled photographer.
