A cemetery tour
I left my sunny hill to travel back into the pea soup fog, now hovering in the valley, that I had been living in for the past two weeks. Well, what better place to go in the fog than a cemetery? So I headed to the George C. Yount cemetery in Yountville. Where none other than George C. himself resides.
Some beautiful ironwork to be found there. This one protected a brother and sister who died within days of each other at a young age. The stories these markers tell….
The plot delineations ranged from iron fences, to concrete walls, to the more inventive river rock approach.
And speaking of river rocks, this was an interesting application.
The cemetery is still in use. This marker was dated 2012, and I found another dated 2013.
I found two of these Woodman markers.
But this was my favorite. You might think we were in wine country.
I left the cemetery, still in the fog, and headed to the bird sanctuary along the river next to a vineyard.
No birds to speak of, but I found this glorious oak with moss.
Then back to my sunny mountain top where the photo ops weren't nearly as interesting.

And came up with this. Same photo as the second to the last above.
