For the Love of All Things Historic

This photography thing is getting expensive.
And I don't mean the buying-new-lenses-fun-kind of expensive.

Grand Entry

Most recently, it was the
Pssssssssssssssssss kind of expensive.
You know, the Pssssssssssssssssss that comes with a flat tire?
The not-so-fun kind of expensive.

Who would have expected a flat tire in a cemetery?
Or even worse,
in an abandoned cemetery in west Philly?

Fallen 

Thankfully,
I have had enough frights and
learned not to make these trips alone.

So I was in good company with photo friends
when Dane from AAA came and saved the day.

Dane had us back among the living in no time.
Thanks Dane.

All images are from the 
largest abandoned cemetery in the USA, 
the historic Mt. Moriah Cemetery in Philadelphia, 
where the Friends of Mt. Moriah Cemetery 
are working to preserve and restore this owner-less cemetery. 
Thanks to the kind and helpful board president, 
Paulette Rhone, for helping us find our way within the cemetery.
