Graveyard Tree


With some time to pass in Oregon City, I decided to venture out to one of the local cemeteries. I was prepared to encounter doom and gloom, sadness and despair. Much to my surprise, the atmosphere was serene and beautiful. I found this flowering white tree that seemed to capture how I felt to be here at this place of peace.

  1. How beautiful. I agree. There's something about that tree. She is almost dancing.

  2. I thought you were going to point out the subtle heart-shaped tree top! My cloud hearts were posted today: http://nostalgiatodayandyesterday.blogspot.com/
    You and your sister have infected my brain, and I thank you both!

  3. There's nothing better than a quiet, thoughtful walk through an interesting cemetery! It's something I have been doing since I was a kid... It always brings me peace.
