Living the Good Life In Georgetown Texas: It's Halloween, Let's Visit the Neighbors at the Cemetery

It's Halloween, Let's Visit the Neighbors at the Cemetery

graveyard angel austin texasIt's a perfect fall day here in Central Texas.  Crisp cool air, sunny, nothing better  that putting the top down on the convertible and taking a drive.  What better place on Halloween than to go visit the departed neigbors in  the historic Oakwood Cemetery in Austin Texas.  The Oakwood Cemetery association was giving tours of the famous and infamous residents.  Here are a few pictures we took.

The sun hit the cross and the carved inscription glowed.."I am the Resurrection..."

This cozy crypt creeped us out.

 

A fun day, but as the sun was setting we headed home to welcome the trick or treaters.  Happy Halloween!

HI Mike - Looks like a fun way to spend Halloween Day (don't know if I'd want to do it at night though).
