I ate lunch in one when I lived in Switzerland, and we had one at the end of the street when we lived in St. Louis. It was a frequent destination.Cheltzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11491844054112217591noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1948073544976029742.post-57167976655621752362013-07-18T13:10:24.223-04:002013-07-18T13:10:24.223-04:00I certainly can identify with the forced off days-...I certainly can identify with the forced off days-- but it's been a long time since we've had to do that.

So interesting to read the gravestones and think about the possible stories of the people buried there. So sad to read the ones of all the ones who died so young.<br /><br />You inspired me to check out local pools here to see about taking the grands to swim. We don't have a pool at our house where we live now and Grandpa and I aren't quite up to taking them to the big water park. A Big Thanks to you 'cause we found a great little splash park and a nice beach at the lake. :-)Nonniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13020639587130083388noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1948073544976029742.post-41102902604410267042013-07-16T13:13:35.298-04:002013-07-16T13:13:35.298-04:00I enjoyed your day.

Strolling through them and gazing at monuments old and new, large and small, simple and ornate, brings serenity, a "peaceful, easy feeling" as the Eagles sang.<br /><br />Ashland, Ohio (or is it Ohio, Ashland?) looks like a clean and lovely town that still offers some of the same family friendly experiences that you and I enjoyed in our youth, the kind that foster a sense of community. <br /><br />As a lover of all creatures, especially dogs, I'm delighted to see pictures of your handsome Eddy the boxer. (When I first glanced at picture #1 I thought Eddy was driving your car!) <br /><br />Dear Kathleen, thank you very much for mentioning me in your post. I am extremely proud to be your "good buddy." I love to entertain you and bring some smiles, laughs and happiness to your days. I cherish our friendship!Shady Del Knighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03839935472941264414noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1948073544976029742.post-2618995442750985172013-07-16T02:35:23.867-04:002013-07-16T02:35:23.867-04:00I love graveyards and, like you, I find them great...I love graveyards and, like you, I find them great places to think - about life or about little things, it doesn't matter - one can just think and not be disturbed.Scriptor Senexhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17795521284516432520noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1948073544976029742.post-73169173569022116902013-07-15T23:57:50.760-04:002013-07-15T23:57:50.760-04:00I always have such mixed feelings about graveyards...I always have such mixed feelings about graveyards. On the one hand I'm curious, always wondering about the people and the lives they lived and the people who loved them, then always saddened by the small graves of babies. Such is the circle of life, huh?! Glad you ended on a happy note showing the swimming pool and facilities. We have nothing like that in our town. You are so fortunate to be privy to all of that.
