An Old Graveyard

When visiting the small potato farm owned by friends of M&M, we were free to explore the property. I felt like a kid exploring an enchanted forest. There were several paths to walk on the property, and you didn't know what might be around the next bend.


Imagine my delight stumbling upon this old graveyard, established long before the current owners bought their lovely property.


I love old graveyards.



They're reminders of those who came before us.


Old graveyards are rich with history.


I love the timeworn character of the monuments.


Next to the barn that now graces the header above, the old graveyard was my favorite spot. I found myself drawn to it more than once during our visit.


Headstones identify the dear departed.

I can't help wondering what their lives were like.

Some people think old graveyards are haunted.


I think they're enchanted, and enchanting.


May they rest in peace.
