The area where I live is dotted with little pioneer cemeteries, which often sit inconspicuously on back roads or at remote intersections.  Part of the fun of living out where I do is to drive around and find them.

There is actually a member of the Louis and Clark expedition interred not far away, a fellow by the name of Alexander Hamilton Willard.  I find it amazing that someone who saw so much of the beginning of America found his rest so nearby, in what must have been still a frontier area at the time.

Anyway, here is a picture one of the kids took at one of our tiny local cemeteries, which after a bit of cropping and work on Lightroom, turned out pretty good.  I think it captures very well the sight and feeling of these overlooked spaces.
