I spent quite a bit of time this week in some local cemeteries taking photos. I found it calming and strangely relaxing. And fascinating, reading the headstones. Cemeteries for the most part are beautifully landscaped, and incredibly poignant. It’s nearly impossible to take a bad photo in a cemetery. Of course, I believe you should approach cemetries with respect. They are not playgrounds, they are the resting places of loved ones. That said, I find older, out of the way, and very small cemeteries to be the most interesting.

I need to make time to write poetry…check under WitchVox.com, under the name Salem Drake, and you will find nearly 575 poems I’ve written. There is more inside waiting to come out. :-)
I so want to attend Buring Man for its counter culture aspects. I just think it would be totally cool to unplug for a few days and live somewhere entirely off the map. Though, nowadays, is it, or anything else “entirely” off the map?
