Cemetery in Jefferson, Iowa
I didn’t end up with much, but the mausoleum makes up for it!
No, not this one
Though it IS cool!
This is just kinda cute
Marble
I love these old tree/wood ones!

Even the door is awesome

I like the gothic architecture on the last photos. I am also facinated by old cemeteries. I can make a whole day of it. I really like old Catholic cemeteries from the 1800s-early 1900s. The Victorians sure knew how to decorate a gravesite. 🙂 I’d love to visit some REALLY old ones out east, but that hasn’t happened yet…someday. Sigh!
I found a strange gravesite on my last outing. There were a pair of graves that each had a small metal door on the ground. Why? Were the doors there in case there’d been a mistake? Were they there to ease further additons? I’m not sure. I should post the pics and see if anyone knows what the little doors were for.
Have a great day!

oh weird! Little doors? Yeah, you should put that up! I tried to google search something on it but came up with JIm Morison’s grave (doors – grave – ha!)
any of those would cost a fortune now days. The fancy mausoleum should be something for a vampire, lol
I know! I totally want it!
