An Old Church in Central Oxford

Oxford, England ~ February 18, 2010

Parish Church of St. Mary Magdalen

This is a more typical view of the church I gave a glimpse of in this post. It was a delight to stumble across this Gothic relic (actually much used, but looking like a relic) after passing through streets of more modern shops and famous big buildings.

Mt. Auburn Cemetery, Watertown/Cambridge, Massachusetts ~

We sought out this place on the map because I have a number of ancestors buried here. What I hadn't realized was how beautiful the place would be, or how historic.

January 3, 2012: I'm revisiting this post today to link it to the "Taphophile Tragics" meme. Check it out!
