Okay so I was stretching to find a quote on walking through a cemetery. It's not as easy as it looks.
The point today is where to walk. A friend asked this and I think cemeteries are great places to walk. I would dare say larger metropolitan cemeteries offer quiet, park like settings. Here in Edinburg we have a nice one at the south end of town. Noel even liked a tombstone that had a rebel flag and some race car driver. We walk through the cemetery on a regular basis.
Usually they are located with views as well. In Meyersdale there is one on a hill that I haven't tried yet. I saw it from the bike trail and am looking forward to a new walk through it.
If you walk in a group and are next to a busy road you will have two distractions. One, avoid being hit because you don't always hear cars coming up behind you. Two, the noise is loud from a heavily trafficked road. Sometimes Rt. 11 here in Edinburg is so noisy I can't what anyone is saying. Those large diesel trucks are especially noisy (smelly too).
Cemetaries are found all over the place. Surely you have heard people are dying to get in them! That was bad, I will try to do better.
Arlington Cemetary is an example of a great place to walk in a metropolitan area. If I lived there, it would be on my travels. You can walk and check out Lee's museum and home there too. Too bad Lee forfeited his home to do what he thought was right, but we can enjoy it today.
So find your bliss and a new walking path.
Keep walkin,
Ron
