I just arrived home after a whirlwind tour of my former kingdom, Columbus, Ohio. Now to get out of these traveling clothes and into something less formal. Hope you had as wonderful weekend as we did!
Had a friend who used to living in Shaker Hts so the title of your blog made me laugh. Thanks for swinging by Oozing out my Ears. Wanted to ask you if you noticed it jumping around? My other blogs look fine, but for some reason Oozing looks odd today to me? Using Google chrome which I don't like. I wonder if someone embezzled money from the Forest Glen, an endowment means the money should still be there. Whether you call it a cemetery, graveyard, or memorial gardens doesn't alter the fact that when you bury someone ...it's a cemetery and if you spend money on a stone, or a marker...you should be able to see said stone or marker. The place is really a mess; but it would be nice if someone/company that had money bought it so the proper care could be given. You can't even leave a flag for a Vet there. Odd place, but I do remember skating there in winter as a child with the family...the stream froze and you could skate quite a distance vs skating in a circle. I knew it was a cemetery then...as a child and thought it odd we were there; but we weren't the only ones, so I guess it wasn't odd.
who's weekend could possibly compare to yours?
ReplyDeleteI was received warmly in the Old Country.

ReplyDeleteDid you have to show them your passport?
ReplyDeleteThey threw rose petals at my feet, and waved palms in the year.
DeleteFunny. One of my staff members made the pilgrimage to Columbus this weekend, too. It's her homeland, too.
ReplyDeleteWe met while she was there. We talked about you.
