Journaling: One of my hobbies is genealogy and one of my favorite places to go is a cemetery. Almost any cemetery will do...but I especially like the older ones. Cemeteries are quiet and peaceful. I enjoy walking around reading the names and looking at the beautiful artwork on the stones. And, if I get lucky, sometimes I find a long lost relative or two! I read once that, “Genealogy is like playing hide and seek: They hide...I seek!” and I couldn’t help but chuckle...how true that statement is! I searched for years to find the gravestones of my great great grandparents and words can’t even begin to describe the sense of accomplishment and satisfaction I felt when I finally found them!

Wow, great journaling!! And the quote about hide and seek -- that's right on the money. Don't you miss the headstones like they used to make? The beautiful ornate ones with angels and heartfelt laments. In the lovely cemetary "park" where my parents are buried, all the headstones have to lay flat so the mowers can go over the top of them. Kinda takes the shine right off doesn't it? Nice job on your layout!

Great journaling! I like your quote, it puts a new twist on genealogy research. Neat way you did your title.

Interesting to read your journaling...you would love the cemeteries here...they are amazing with the statues, crypts, stones, memorials. Of course it is solid stones and items, hardly a hint of grass to be found, but it is also a favorite place I go and take photos, walk around.

We have no grass in our cemeteries either.
I love the fact you were looking and finally found the headstones.
i love the flowers and swirls on your page.
