[Leica] Re: OT: know any good cemeteries?

["langhans" <langhans@compwrx.com>]

There is a very interesting cemetary in Roslyn, Washington.  That is the
town of "Northern Exposure" fame, and before that, the cemetary and
surroundings were featured in a movie called "The Runner Stumbles" or
something like that.  Dick van Dyke played a priest.  It is not a vast
cemetary, but might be worth looking into.
