Sometimes its nice to be buried under a tree and sometimes it's
 Not!

Think about how large this tree will be in 50 years.

While walking through this cemetery in Birmingham, AL I saw a very Large Tree  that had fallen to the ground.

Look what it did to Eugene Temple's Grave.

What do you do when you past by history on side of the ROAD?

GRAB IT!

One of the neighbors in the neighborhood died recently and his family was cleaning out his home. Well you know what some family members do, they put everything on the street for anyone and the trash collector to pick up. I had to take a second look, and I said that looks like Rev. Fred Shuttlesworth photo. 30 x 30 frame.

I probably will donated it.
