I am in Kansas City, Kansas, attending and presenting at the Midwest Family History Expo this weekend! I have not attended this conference before, but with over 80 presentations offered, this looks to be a very busy and informative two days! I will talk about cemetery research on Saturday and show some examples of what we "Tombstone Tourists' love to do.
Unfortunately, in all of my excitement in getting everything ready....I left my blog research and pics for today's blog on my home computer, back in Lexington. My apologies! Look for it next Friday.
This coming Tuesday, we'll take a look at the Lexington (Kentucky) Cemetery in our monthly 'Cemeteries Worth the Visit' blog!
Have a great weekend!

Yes, I am one of those people who love to wander cemeteries. I find it akin to visiting an art museum; an opportunity to enjoy rarely appreciated sculpture, intricate carvings, and amazing architecture in a tranquil outdoor setting. This is a blog about cemetery culture; art, history, issues of death, and genealogy - subjects of current relevance. I usually find something that intrigues me, something that makes me want to dig deeper - relevant, yet fascinating. Care to join me? Read on.....
Hate when that happens. No worries. We will be waiting. Thanks so much for sharing.
