Omaha Flickr Walk - Holy Sepulchre Cemetery April 21, 2007
Omaha, Nebraska 68106
Come join us for a cemetery photo walk at Holy Sepulchre Cemetery. Founded in 1873, it has several truly beautiful markers, monuments, and mausoleums.
There are at least 11 famous people buried there according to Find A Grave including Edward Creighton (Yes, that Creighton) and Skip Stephenson of the early 80s tv show Real People. (Please tell me I'm not the only one who remembers that show.)
The cemetery is on the north side of Leavenworth just west of Saddle Creek. When you turn in, veer slightly to the right and head up the hill. At the top you'll see a roundabout. It's the only roundabout in the cemetery. We'll meet up there.

Okay peeps, it's just going to be too dang cold on 4/7 thanks to this cold snap. I'm rescheduling for the morning of 4/21. Those who want can go from here to Elmwood Park afterwards, which is very close, by for Earth Day.

Too cold?? When Lincoln went to Wyuka Cemetery in February it was 23 degrees and there was snow on the ground. Weenies. Just Kidding!! LOL Talk about "Extreme Photowalks". : ) That was my first flickr walk ever, so the rest should be easy as pie.
I doubt I'll make it up for this one, but I can't wait to see everyone's photos!!
