This is Halcyon cemetery in Arroyo Grande. We drive past it everytime we visit our friends in Oceano and the last time Margot pulled over and said "Would you like to get some pictures?"
It was a warm Sunday afternoon and very peaceful walking around and taking shots of the headstones.
There seemed to be a plethora of very diminutive markers,
including some where the engraving had almost worn away with the years.
On this last Saturday of 2011, we'll bid a fond farewell to Cemetery Saturday. I hope you've enjoyed our graveyard visits.
What a beautiful 2011 ending to Cemetery Saturday. Your Saturday posts are so relaxing to me and I enjoy the postings and photos so much! And just to say, you have a wonderful blog, I love all that you share. Wishing you a Happy and Creative 2012!

On childhood vacations along the Central Coast, the Arroyo Grande cemetery was always a place to stop and absorb the atmosphere, which usually included fog, half-cloaking the monuments. On this last Saturday of 2011, my wishes for even more of what was wonderful about this year, bigger, grander, more colorful. All the best, xoxo
ReplyDeleteMarylinn - And all the best to you my dear friend. I love our remembered reminiscences of life in Southern California back in the day!
ReplyDeleteAn artful and lovely 2012 for you, Erin
