There is something about the winter that brings out the spooky in me.
At the end of the month the Holidailies start up and I’ll be posting holiday related stuff everyday.
Of course, in my family we used to tell a lot of ghost stories and the like during those long cold winter evenings so what you’ll get from me will be interesting.
No doubt about that.

Yeah.
Today’s is my birthday.
Hoping for more in the future and hopefully cupcakes and gelato will be involved.

Spindly trees, rusted gates, crumbling stone, a solitary mourner: these things come to mind when we think of cemeteries.

How did cemeteries become what they are today?
