The day we leave the yummy treats on the headstones of those we love who have departed ahead of us.
I celebrated a little bit early this year. I drove up to one of the multiple cemeteries in Star Valley a few weeks ago delivering a bunch of sugary goodness and paying my respects to friends and some family who are in one of my favorite cemeteries (is that sick, to have a favorite cemetery?). I love the Bedford cemetery. I really do. The view from the top of the hill is amazing. So much so that I took Jim up there when we were driving around that 4th of July.
I wish there was a placard for people to remember him by as well. A place. A space. The man who gave so much received so little respect in the end. But that's another story.
For now, I laid his candy under the big leaning tree.
