Hi, everyone!
My daughter Mandy told me I shouldn't apologize for my absence
every time I start a blog post now, so I'll just thank you all for checking
on me and show you what I've been up to...
(I haven't forsaken A Little Fur in the Paint, I just have such a one-track
mind sometimes...okay, a lot of the time) ~
I have a passion for cemetery photography, which started out
as "just the pretty angels" and evolved into history,
and photographing (often) some of the most humble stones
imaginable...so, on my travels north to Saint Charles, Missouri
to see Mandy and south to Atlanta to see Katie, I've visited quite a few
cemeteries ~ large and small, some multiple times. I've pretty much kept it
"under wraps" until now,
as I wanted to get all the pictures...a LOT...on, and then go back and put
in text and informational links ~ I'm working on all that but there
are still several with no text, and even some post titles with nothing at all so far...
Still, I wanted to go ahead and share it; it is and will continue to be
a "Work in Progress"...hey, kind of like me. ;)
I'm applying for "Graveyard Rabbit" status today
(a group dedicated to preservation of cemeteries),
and I would love it if you would take a peek!
The link is www.agraveyardrabbitinsemo.blogspot.com ~
but I will also put it permanently in the sidebar
and note when I have a new post there.

This lovely angel (yes, I'm still drawn to "pretty") resides
in Mount Olivet Cemetery in Nashville;
I just recently found her, having visited Mount Olivet several times
previously (always new discoveries)...
I said I was going to bring roses on my return trip (best $4 Walmart buy in a while)
and do something "arty", so I did.
I'm still working on this post, so you won't find her in A Graveyard Rabbit
(be sure and check out the poem on the blog's sidebar
for the explanation for that title) just yet.
Soon, though!
Thank you for looking, Happy July,
and I hope you all are having a wonderful summer so far!
~
