Today is Memorial Day in the United States. A day to remember those who lost their life serving in the military.
I took this photo of the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier on our last trip to Washington DC. It was worth a visit and puts things in perspective.
On this spooky night, I have a photo from the public cemetery in Pontiac Michigan. I took this last year during a photo walk with Rodney Mendoza. Not only is he a lifelong friend, but his is also a great photographer.
I hope you have a great Halloween. Be safe and have fun!!!

This cool little spot…well it isn’t really a small place, is within Arlington National Cemetery near The Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. I had no idea it existed until we found it by mistake. I assume they use if for performances, if not what a shame. They (we the people of the United States) clearly spent a ton of money building this great theater.

Last year after hitting up an Urbex spot, Blair and I stopped by this location for a few pics. This was my first visit (so far my only visit) to the Allegheny Cemetery. I loved this entrance.

Its Memorial Day tomorrow here in the United States. Most Americans use this three-day weekend to travel, hang out with friends, grill out and just have fun. It’s become the unofficial start of summer vacation season for most Americans. It was setup as a Federal holiday to remember individuals who died while serving in the military. So regardless of your plans this weekend, have a great time.
Today’s photo is from the Allegheny Cemetery is Pittsburgh. I love this castle looking structure at the entrance of the cemetery.

Anyone else ready for Spring? I am!!! I took this photo last spring at the end of a Pittsburgh photo walk. We finished up and most people left, but Blair and I stayed a little while longer and went to this spot to check it out. I’m glad we did. I loved this little castle looking structure at the entrance to the cemetery (incorporated in 1844).
So until Spring arrives, let’s just look at photos from warmer times and keep our heads up.

I’ve posted a few pictures from this cemetery in the past. This is the Capilla del Cementerio Santa Maria in old San Juan Puerto Rico. I’m not ready for this spot to be my home yet, but when the time comes….this might be a great location. It has beautiful architecture, great history, a Spanish fort and an ocean view. Wow….

I took this photo during our last trip to Old San Juan, Puerto Rico. I’ve been to Old San Juan numerous times, but I never explored the cemetery until this visit. I got lots of great photos of this spot.
Here is information on this location that I found on Puerto Rico Historic Building Drawings Society FB page. Their FB page states that this is a colonial-era cemetery that is the final resting place of many prominent residents. They started construction in 1863 outside of the walls of Fort Felipe del Morro fortress over looking the Atlantic Ocean. I found the place very interesting and beautiful in its own way.
