Walking through our cemetery…

Almost everyday, our daily walk takes us through the Park City cemetery. Most of the time our path through the local “boot-hill” is 0.2 mile and sometimes extends to 0.3 mile.

This means that during one year we walk some 75 miles among the dead.

This daily exercise helps up get the idea that we aren’t on this earth forever and that sooner or later, we’ll join these quiet people whose eternal sleep is only disturbed by during the good season by subterranean neighbors like ground squirrels and marmots, while the magpies provide the sound system.
A few final notes; after hundreds of miles walked through this place over many years:
  • We’ve go a great spot reserved for us in that fun place 
  • It has unobstructed views of the ski slopes 
  • We haven’t seen anyone raising from the dead yet!
