More from Magnolia Cemetery


Magnolia Cemetery, Charleston, S.C.

It hasn't stopped raining long enough for me to go for my walk this morning so no new pictures from the day. This set is from last weekend's stroll through Magnolia Cemetery.

There is a new book on historic Magnolia Cemetery called City of the Silent. Amazon says it will be available by the end of the month.

I've never seen such interesting gravestones, particularly the one of the baby in the bassinet. I love old cemeteries.

Linda - that baby one is interesting. Someone always puts a seasonal arrangement or trinket in it. This time there was a Christmas Angel.

Incredible as always. The Confederate flag in the first one is so telling of Charleston's history and of today's Southern culture.

NICE, Joan!

I like the first one, but they are all interesting.
