Palmer Cemetery

Now, the Palmer Cemetery isn’t as nice as say St. Louis in N’Orleans or Pere-​Lachaise in Paris (actually, what is as beautiful as that?), but it really is a cool cemetery. It’s not that big, but it does have some nice stones. And then there’s the markers that are just small wood crosses, which look man made and probably are, with the names carved into the cross wood. I imagine that these are there because that’s what the people could afford. See, if you live in Fishtown, you get a free plot in Palmer Cemetery! Awesome, I’ve already picked out my spot, so no one take it. It’s near the corner where the ground rises up to a small mound. Nice! But, yes it really is a neat place to walk around or through on a brisk fall day. Maybe even have a picnic like the good old days.
