It's the last Friday in October, the day before Halloween (for those who celebrate), the next to next to last day of Daylight Saving (yes, it isn't "savings") Time here in the United States, and time to get wicked scary.
What's more scary than a cemetery? How about a cemetery with interesting skies and foliage?
But no worries - there are no grave robbers after those inside this mausoleum anymore, unlike the 19th century, when this mausoleum belonging to a wealthy family had to be guarded and, in fact, was broken into.
Welcome to Spring Forest Cemetery in Binghamton, New York.
Yes, kind of creepy.
But don't be afraid.
You know you want to walk down this peaceful road. Or do you? I don't mind, at least during the day.
Don't you?
Wonder who (or what) lives in that tree.
But before you turn around, one more majestic tree.
Today I join Yogi and the other bloggers of #SkywatchFriday, as I do each Friday.
Beautiful!
ReplyDelete...thi looks like a great cemetery.
ReplyDeleteJust inside what I called the "Crack-of-Doom" gate in my hometown's municipal cemetery was the mausoleum of one of the founding families. The mausoleum was very old. It was falling into disrepair and the door was coming off its hinges. Creepy!!
ReplyDeleteA Twofer! I loved your last cemetery post and this one is just as good! Other than that one tree, which is downright scary, these are such beautiful, peaceful pictures! Thank you for sharing!
ReplyDeleteThat "peaceful road" picture is my favorite, reminds me so much of New England in the fall.
ReplyDeleteThe second one down with the branched arched over framing the photo is wonderful! And, yes, I do want to walk down that road.
ReplyDeleteLove your cemetery photos although have tough time going through alone, even during the day. Probably silly, since all our troubles come from the living!
ReplyDeleteReally pretty shots. If it's possible for a cemetery to be beautiful, you captured it here. Have a Happy Halloween!
ReplyDeleteVery pretty. Yeah, I guess people stealing corpses was a thing. Kind of a prank. And then there were the medical students needing cadavers. Strange times.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely beautiful setting for a cemetery.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful pictures. love the backdrop of fall colours :)
