Forest Hills Cemetery Jamaica Plain, MA

A gorgeous cemetery - one in which people are encouraged to walk around and explore the gravestones and markers of people - some famous and some not.

An impromptu trip to Salem, Ma on Saturday netted some fine pictures.  For those who plan an escape to the wonderful Salem, my advice is to read up on the area, the history and the places of interest and map yourself out a trip.  We went with no idea of what was to be seen (except for those pieces of trivia buried in our subconscious minds from grade school field trips) and no doubt would have seen more of the sites that we were interested in rather than what we happened across.  There is a lot going on in Salem.......check it out here, and here, and if your interest runs to the paranormal, there are a lot of "haunted" sites you can check out also.
