Bohemian National Cemetery

Sunday was sunny, so of course I headed out to the cemetery I've been meaning to tromp round. Sunny it may have been, but I eventually became truly concerned about the state of my toes.

There were a lot of trees and female figures along with a handful of angels. I will definitely have to go back when there isn't snow on the ground. The downside will be the leaves on the trees. I found the bare branches quite atmospheric.

I live on the south side of Chicago so I'm pretty local. Sounds like fun. Having a plan with someone else makes for good motivation. Ever since I found out I could get there by bus I've told myself I'd go there but it always was "someday" and "eventually".

Also having another person would (hopefully) make getting lost more difficult.

Maybe Monday or some other day next week? I don't know when the current snow will melt but more is predicted for next Friday. Or did you want to wait a while more?

Sooner rather than later is fine with me, but I hold down a 9-5 so I'm not generally available on weekdays. Aside from Saturday the 12th my weekends are open for the foreseeable future, though. :-) *makes note to be a responsible adult person and acquire suitable footwear*

Sunday the 13th maybe? My own work schedule is a bit more uncertain. I work at conventions so when there are no conventions (like right now) I'm off. Plus when there is a convention I can't be sure if I'll be assigned to it so making plans too far ahead is a bad idea (I don't want to have to cancel on you).

The 13th works for me. Unless the weather proves ridiculous, let's plan on that. :-) Shall we touch base again nearer the day to set a time?

Sounds good. We'll contact each other in a few days.
