Thanks guys.

I went back at about 3:30am to get some pics of the clock face lit up.



No flash to show how Dark it is in the Cemetary at night.





Then on the way home I stopped at the old Wiilow Brook Ballroom, opened in 1921 as the Oh Henry Ballroom.
Do a Google search about this place.











Then on past Resurrection Cemetery and the one before it, they are next to each other.











It rained a few hours before I went so the car was wet and dirty.

Do a search for Resurrection Mary. It's said the night of her death she was dancing at the Willow Brook Ballroom and was buried in Resurrection Cemetery.
Supposedly late at night a woman in a white dress is seen hitch hiking, when you let her in, to give her a lift she asks to be dropped off at the Cemetery and vanishes into thin air.

Nope did not see any ghosts myself.

Opps, this one didn't load.

Let me know when, we can do them together, a second pair of hands would come in handy I bet.

Great pics A&P, nice spooky atmosphere, all you need is a little ground fog for that perfect "horror movie" look.

Love the pics A&P! We have the same affinity for cemetery backdrops as the pic in my sig was taken at the Elm Cemetery in New Haven, CT.

Drove it.... it rained. So I detailed it when I got back and put it in the garage. Now the sun is out..... :|

Well after last nights adventure I was just happy to pull them back into the garage. We had some excitement caused by a neighbor from another condo who came home just before 10 last night, and she was feeling no pain...actually plastered might be an understatement.

She managed to hit the corner of our building, two out of three garage doors, a brick column, the steps and the wrought iron railings, before coming to rest against a fence. It sounded like the proverbial plane crash. So today was spent waiting for the garage door folks to disassemble the crunched doors one panel at a time so I could get the critters out of the garage then they could go to work. Two new doors and tracks later, we're back in business, well sort of....the railings will have to be redone and the bricklayers will be here next week...almost forget the big 'ol dent in the fence.

As for the wayward neighbor, she spent the night in the drunk tank and was charged with DWI along with a few other things. Now I wonder if Allstate will be so understanding when they see whats left of her Trailblazer SS. Here's what's left of it as they started dragging in towards the wrecker, it was a nice truck once. Thankfully we didn't have any damage to our fleet/herd/whatever, but it was very close.

You're lucky, and so is she...... could have been much worse for her and/or somebody else if she had hit a car or pedestrian before she got to your place.

She is fortunate that her well lubricated ride came to an end the way it did, considering that she was unable to stand or talk when the police got her out of the truck I'd hate to imagine what could have happened. She is a nice lady going through a messy divorce so she needs some help, but that doesn't excuse her behavior in any way, someone could have very well died last night.

Well hopefully she will be off the road for a good while & maybe (just maybe) think about her actions..

I have had a few close friends killed by drunk & /or Hi drivers, so no sympathies here..

edit: Sounds like she has a lot on her plate, & that's unfortunate..but getting loaded to the gills has never fixed any problems TIKO, just added to em..

Maybe this will be a wake up call for her.. I hope so..
