Sitting On a Tombstone

a tombstone of a person long gone forgotten by generations and generations became a happy place for my grandson today He is possibly the happiest person who ever sat on a headstone I get my camera and take a quick photo before he knows how adorable and pure he is the contrast between life and death never been more obvious than in this sacred moment of pure happiness

As a genealogist who likes to spend time in cemeteries, love your grandson in spending time amongst those who have gone before.

It is a great place to meditate and admire the birds and the sky for sure Francis.

You took the picture of life 360... the present, your grandson and whoever unseen, the past continuous...

Ha, ha! Time for some 'Tombstone Pizza!' There you have a contrast between the pizza and the box it comes in... ON second thought, maybe there isn't much of a contrast... Oh, well...
