kensal green


On January 18th, Shane and I traveled up to Kensal Green cemetery, and there we wandered amongst Victorian gravestones and monuments.


Some of the monuments are bizarre and overwrought; many are collapsing. This only made them more interesting, however.


The day was gray, the ground was cold and wet, so it made for a perfect day to go sloshing about in a cemetery. Nevertheless, we lingered a little too long and were locked in, but we found a gap in a chain-link fence and escaped. A couple of years ago, I was nearly trapped in Paris's Père Lachaise cemetery. It seems to be a thing with me.
