Jerusalem
According to the sign, Sunday School was supposed to be in session. The Patient Spouse and I (plus a dog that seemed to live in an adjacent cemetery) were the only ones in attendance and none of us were prepared to give a lesson.
So I made some photos, the dog returned to the shady spot he’d emerged from, and the PS and I drove onward.

in repose
I am sure you know that when I say “I went to Tulia” it implies that I went to the cemetery while I was there. And it was in the Tulia cemetery where I found two madonnas, at repose atop small concrete slab markers.

Joe
Just a little shot of Joe’s grave in the cemetery at Terlingua Ghost Town. I didn’t know him, but I liked the handful of candles, the tattered flag, and the scratched-concrete grave marker.

Three Crosses
My geography is a lot of horizontal lines – plowed fields, center-pivot irrigation systems, pipe-rail fences, the horizon itself. And on a good photography day three crosses and the clouds add in some other shapes and keep it all interesting and in balance.

Downpour
We took a more-or-less aimless drive the other day, eventually ending up on a road just because the map indicated a cemetery along the way. As a bonus, that route pointed us right toward some afternoon storms that were building up. And then, as a double-bonus, just when we got to the cemetery one of the clouds, off in the distance, decided it was time to rain.
