But I will remember your offer, as I am aching to go back to San Francisco. Thank you So Much for the offer!Erin Wallacehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14740698417495064304noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5645565425975572299.post-33609526057212130732010-01-26T11:28:06.508-05:002010-01-26T11:28:06.508-05:00Lovely!

I made a pilgrimage to Pere Lachaise many years ago when I though it "would be cool" to visit Morrison's grave but didn't appreciate the providence of the place. Today it would be more important for me to visit the resting place of Proust and Poulenc. Ah, Msr. Poulenc! <br /><br />If you ever make it the Bay Area, I'd love to give you a tour of Oakland's Mountain View Cemetery and the neighboring Chapel of the Chimes, the latter designed (in part) by Julia Morgan.LadrĂ³n de Basura (a.k.a.

I'm an avid fan of hers, and I've been following her blog ever since she started. I knit, a lot, and I fins I have less and less time to read the more I knit... I'm more of a fantasy/horror type of gal when it comes to books, and I've practically never read any of the classics. Only some of them, when I was still in school, but as I've been in the field of biology ever since I started University 10 years ago, I don't get to read those types of books for education either.<br /><br />The cemetery looks really beautiful though, I really want to see Paris some day, and as both me and my husband actually love the Doors, I guess we would have to see this cemetery anyway!<br /><br />/ JennyJennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17455205523834615045noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5645565425975572299.post-18389660321612467822010-01-24T18:37:11.194-05:002010-01-24T18:37:11.194-05:00These images are hauntingly beautiful...such soul ...These images are hauntingly beautiful...such soul and spirit.<br />Beautiful.<br />We used to live right next door to cemetary in Hudson Valley...never really got the "creepy" part.

I loved it when I was in school, and didn't read it in a very scholarly way- just sort of let the stream of consciousness take over.<br /><br />I can't wait to hear all about it!Kittyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17161686498188117330noreply@blogger.com
