It’s
amazing how quickly the time passes.
Today marks
the tenth anniversary of A Grave Interest.
I started
the blog in 2011 because of my love for cemeteries. And because my husband and I had
recently closed our winery after ten years. I thought it would give me something
fun to do. Brian thought it would keep me busy for a few months …
Needless to
say, after a decade of wandering and researching and writing, I’m more hooked
on cemeteries than ever!
Thanks to
all of you for reading the posts, telling me your stories, cluing me in on
some great cemeteries, sharing photos, and inviting me to your genealogy
conferences, libraries and societies. I love giving presentations about cemetery
research, sharing interesting photos, and telling the occasional story about spooky cemetery occurrences.
I’ve got
some major changes in the works for the next year including offering webinars,
although I really miss getting to meet and talk with all of you. (Hoping we can
attend meetings and conferences later in the year.) There will also be a new A Grave Interest
podcast, a new updated webpage and some in-the-field videos. Plus, more of the
blog, so stay tuned, keep wandering cemeteries and keep reading.
And thanks
for making this such a blast to do!
