Cedar Hill Season Opener

Today was the the season opener for walking tours at Cedar Hill Cemetery.  The theme was "Wethersfield Notables."  Melissa Josefiak discussed notable Wethersfield, Connecticut personages who now reside at Cedar Hill including:

10 a.m. start. The weather was gray and damp and the wind periodically  sent a chill. So it was no wonder only a small group took advantage of this 90 minute walk.

This time I did not bring my camera or use my phone to take pictures. I did not bring a notepad to jot down notes. Instead, I just listened and enjoyed.

Next weekend is the bird watching walk. Looking forward to that.
