Today, on a fine sunny autumn day, I went in the garden to feel the warm sun on my face and after sitting on the swing chair for a bit, I decided on the spot that I would go for a walk! (Believe me, it doesn’t happen often!!!)) There’s a cemetery across the road from us and it’s got a steep path upwards so when you get to the top, there’s a great view and it’s really peaceful. There was hardly a cloud in the sky and I decided to take a picture of the view and of Castle Hill which is a famous landmark in the town I live in. 
Good exercise going up the steep hill too for me as it works my legs! I took a seat for a bit and took in the view for a few minutes before going back home. It may sound weird that I like walking around a cemetery but I’ve lived opposite it since I was 2 and I think nothing of it, I think it looks all pretty sometimes with all the flowers and the trinkets they have hanging on the trees. I grew up with my parents telling me the dead can’t hurt you, just the living but I would never walk up there at night!!!
Death is never a happy subject but a cemetery is a place where you can reflect on memories, a peaceful place. I also found lots of conkers on the way to the cemetery too!!

What's a conker?
A conker is a sort of nut that comes from the Horse Chestnut tree!
