The most flowery cemetery I've ever seen!
Day 81
Buffalo Cemetery
June 15th, 2010
I'm walking across America.
That's the idea, at least. I'm walking westward from New York City for nine months or so. If everything goes according to plan, I'll be in Oregon when the clock runs out. If nothing goes according to plan, maybe I'll end up in Peru or Mongolia or Pennsylvania. You can read all about the details of my trip if you're so inclined.

Here's my progress so far:
Wow, that is the nicest cemetary I have ever seen! N D ‘s peonies are in full bloom, mine was gone a month ago. Those sure are some pretty flowers.
This is nice! So, much better than fake/silk flowers.
Love, Love all those peonies!!
That is one of the prettier cemeteries that I’ve seen, too. Peonies around here just bloomed; they don’t last long at all, but they are a pleasure to see in the garden.
Peonies as a metaphor for life, perhaps?
That is a wonderful cemetery. Peonies are incredibly long-lived plants, making them ideal for cemeteries. 100 year-old plantings are not uncommon.
Yea aren’t they now advertised as “lifetime” peonies. they will last for generations to come.
PRetty cemetary Matt.
That is indeed a very cool sight. Thanks for sharing with us!
I love this. It’s nice to see that someone takes time and cares enough to do something like this.
Such a beautiful place to be buried!!! Very well kept & meticulous:)
What a lovely cemetery. More of them should do something like this.
This is the prettiest cemetery I’ve ever seen!
What a beautiful cemetery (never thought I’d be writing that).
Very nice way to honor someone’s life….live flowers! sweet!
great idea!!!!!
I wonder how many buffalo are buried there?
Wow – I’ve never seen a cemetery like this one! The LIVE flowers are beautiful.
What an honor it must be to rest there. Looks like it’s lovingly maintained, too. How nice to see!
Oh, those beautiful peonies!!! One of my favorite flowers in the midwest.
