DP Theme Day: City Exchange

Historic Columbian Cemetery in Portland Oregon

This month the theme day is: post a photo of a city other than yours. My photo is of Historic Columbian Cemetery in Portland, Oregon. I have a vested interest in the cemetery, as my mother runs the place and I maintain the web site.

This photo was taken in the fall of 2005.

(Note: I'm posting this a few hours early to try to keep in line with participants in earlier time zones.)

well I've never heard of a cemetery before that had an online store selling souvenirs.

I'm learning an awful lot today

Gerald, the cemetery is all volunteer run, so the CafeShop is just a means to help pay for grounds maintenance and such.

Nice peaceful place. I hesitate to try it out though.

My Theme Day is of a city unto itself, with its own zip code, and a portrait of the "Peashooter" at the National Museum of the United States Air Force. Hope you like flying.
