I'm learning about so many amazing and interesting topics during this challenge. I love cemeteries. I developed my interest when living in New Orleans. It's hard not to when the graves are all above ground. I guess with so many other things to do in New York, people often get sidetracked and overlook some of the most fascinating attractions. I'm glad I now know about Green-Wood Cemetery. My next trip to NY will include an excursion to Brooklyn for a visit. I hope you are enjoying the challenge.Melissa Sugarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16268333458796847721noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8199270158927284616.post-33122976424295381802016-04-08T21:08:44.495-04:002016-04-08T21:08:44.495-04:00Wow.

The newer ones seem very... sterile... by comparison. All the headstones the same sizes, laser cut, no fresh flowers allowed... they have so little character left. I want to be cremated and scattered via Parasail off the coast of Daytona Beach. :)Holly Jahangirihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08034708581256314628noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8199270158927284616.post-51032430964017772962016-04-08T10:24:08.960-04:002016-04-08T10:24:08.960-04:00What a lovely place Alana!
