So one day, perhaps June 9, we all went out to the Cimetiere du Pere-Lachaise, one of Paris' large and famous cemeteries. I think this may have had something to do with the
Vinci Municipal Code or somesuch; or maybe Rickie Stevie. Whatever.

Of course, most normal personnes are entombed in little
vaults like so |
 |
| Somehow, this poor discarded cemetery rose spoke to me... |
 |
| Tomb of the unknown boy and his dog |
 |
But then we found the tomb of Oscar Wilde (with a small
crowd of on-lookers); and, in short, it was the best time I
have ever had in a cemetery, so far |
 |
| Gertrude Stein |
 |
| The ever-popular Jim Morrison |
 |
| Frederic Chopin |
 |
Abelard and Heloise; well, a re-creation of
sorts |
 |
| Rossini...and many, many, many more |
