Rock Creek Cemetery in Washington D.C. was reportedly a victim of a burglary. According to reports on various listservs a 11 foot bronze piece and other pieces were stolen from the cemetery in the past week or so. According to Rev. Rosemari Sullivan, this theft most likely took a number of people seeing when the bronze piece was installed it took a crane and six people. Anyone with information regarding this crime are urged to call DC Police at 202-726-2080.
If you have been a regular visitor to the blog you know that my love of photographing cemeteries started at Rock Creek Cemetery years ago. I hope they find these stolen pieces and are able to keep the cemetery open to the public.

Connecticut Cemetery by the Highway
This past weekend I was in Connecticut, and I passed this cemetery on Route 8 in the Valley. The next day I returned to explore St. James Catholic Cemetery in Naugatuck. Walking around the cemetery wasn't easy with the snow still on the ground. Spring can't come quick enough for my family and friends up north!
