Showtime

 This maple tree is putting on a spectacular show at Mt. Wollaston Cemetery.

Justice, Honor, Strength

This bronze relief on a monument to the International Hod Carriers Labor Union (Laborers International Union), is located in Mount Wollaston Cemetery and seems like a fitting post for acknowledging this national holiday.

Sunny Sunday

I spotted this beautiful stone detail on a gravestone at Mt. Wollaston Cemetery.  Some of the stonework in Quincy's cemeteries is amazing.

Sleeping On The Job

This beautiful angel may be found in repose at Mount Wollaston Cemetery.

Today is a celebration to honor America's veterans for their patriotism, love of country, and willingness to serve and sacrifice for the common good. Thank you!

These Leaves Left

Purple Majesty

The only elk I have seen in Quincy is this elk statue for members of the Elks organization that are buried here at Mt. Wollaston cemetery.

Happy Skywatch Friday everyone! The sun is shining today . . . nice!

Dressed & Undressed

Cemeteries are a great place for viewing the shapes and colors of trees in a city. I liked the contrast of the 2 trees here -- one in full fall dress and the tree beside it that has shed all its leaves.

Forever Leaves

These beautifully rendered leaves caught my eye on the doors to a mausoleum at Mt. Wollaston cemetery. I hope to do lots of leaf peeping in the next week.

Autumn Dance

This tree trunk appears to be caught in a dance moving among the rows of graves at Mt. Wollaston Cemetery.

Mt. Wollaston Cemetery is a perfect place to see some of Quincy's best autumn tree specimens. The shape and varied colors caught my eye.
