Late November at Arnos Vale

Arnos Vale Cemetery was laid out as an Arcadian landscape in 1837.  Now the landscape has taken over.  






My grandparents' and infant uncle's grave, now beginning to sink (and yes, I really should go back and do some weeding ... )

'Happy are those who see beauty in hidden places where others see none ... '
