Odd as it may sound, a local cemetery is one of my favorite spots to visit no matter what the season. It's so more than just a "final resting place." Nature runs amok at every turn with a bubbling stream, a vast collection of well established trees (many ancient and able to tell stories of their own), colorful shrubs and perennials, fabulous, well etched stone work, architecturally stunning buildings and bridges, statuary dating back to the 1800s... all beautifully landscaped and maintained. This solitary figure is one of my favorites - she sits and ponders deep thoughts day after day, year after year, decade after decade. Here she is - featured in several composite photos.
