No matter where I travel I find myself in a cemetery. I find headstones fascinating, some tell stories, some send messages. Some are grand, some are simple.
  This simple handmade metal marker was found in Somerset TX. in an old cemetery. The one in the background was also handmade as I recall. During my walk through here I managed to get into poision ivy or poision oak. Never saw either. I was watching for snakes.
 
 

This one behind a Catholic church in TX. Dated 1800's All iron

This one was also in the Somerset church cemetery. I wish I knew why the dog and cat are on the marker.

The oaks are big - Mission Park South San Antonio

Texas Ranger Capt. Johnny Klevennhagen This monument is huge

This in a cemetery in Penna. They use a lot of color on theirs
 

2 children - not sure where or when I found this one. and Jessica may have been a child as well.

Day of the Dead or All Saints Day in San Antonio finds families at gravesites decorating, visiting, remembering their loved ones. Holiday's also find graves decorated due to fair weather. One family plot in San Antonio Mission South goes all out.
 

That includes the tree too.
