My name is Cynthia and I love interior design, architecture, antiques, all things vintage, all things British (a tried and true Anglophile), a love of things that are time worn and hold secrets of days gone by. I love animals and try to respect their place in our world. I enjoying talking about the most beautiful places in the world, some exotic, some in our own neck of the woods. I love family and friends, music and movies. And most importantly, I love talking about these things with a daily dose of humor because I love to laugh and we all deserve to. So come on...let's go for a stroll.

AND PLEASE CLICK ON THE ENTRY AND LEAVE ME A COMMENT - I can't talk to you if I don't know you were here, dearest dahling...

Historic Rose Hill Cemetery - Macon Georgia



Several weeks ago, on my way home from visiting my daughter in Statesboro, Georgia, I made a point of stopping off at Rose Hill Cemetery in Macon, Georgia.  If you have never been, and enjoy the beauty and history of old cemeteries, then you must see it.  It's famous for being the burial place of Duane Allman and Berry Oakley of  the Allman Brothers Band, whom I worship and adore.  I ended up staying over two hours, walking and taking photographs...reading the headstones, trying to read others that were long faded and worn.  I circled around what seemed like 5 times trying to find the Allman graves, when thankfully, two men from New York City noticed the dumb look on my face and asked if I was lost.  They pointed me in the right direction, having made the pilgrimage themselves.  I would have never found it...tucked into a hillside near the Confederate soldier section and near the railroad tracks.  It is a beautiful memorial to two very talented people who died way too early.  I have uploaded my photos and hope you enjoy seeing them as much as I enjoyed walking around that day, even if I was wandering aimlessly.  Have a beautiful Sunday.
