Apparently there was a fashion for fake tree stump tombstones in the 19th Century.
There was also a fashion for books.
This is a much more Classical approach.
It's good for San Franciscans to experience real Autumn.

Hollywood Cemetery
One of my favorite places in Richmond VA is Hollywood Cemetery. I've already blogged about it but on my recent trip we went to a different part of it. This dog is guarding a child's grave.

As the stone wears away, certain features erode and others take on a bizarre prominence.

Back East
The bureau chief was briefly in Richmond VA for Thanksgiving. On the way there I caught this sunset from the air.
The first frost had not yet occurred and there were plenty of colored leaves. This was shot through glass on a grey day.
The sun finally came out. This is Hollywood Cemetery.
The James river from the cemetery.
