Mountain view cemetary, which is still in operation is a 226 Acre plot of land that was established in 1863.
Many wealthy people were buried there, and they celebrated their deaths with elaborate displays, which turned this place of rest into a tourist place complete with guided tours. However, we have learned, that even rich corpses, and docents can't stop graffiti in Oakland.
This first picture was taken at one of the three spring fed resorvoirs. The water seen in this picture is Spring water running through Oakland.
In this picture we are witnesses to a notorious Oakland Graffiti Artist making his statement. Whoever Ashlee Simpson was, may she RIP.
The storage shed for the maintenance crew. Vandalized or personalized?
Another Oakland Water Resorvoir. There really isnt enough water for Californians to be having lawns. Food not lawns, people.
Sometimes it takes spending a day with dead people to remember that you are still alive.
Thank you for vising my blog. Today we visited a Cemetary in Oakland. If you are interested in seeing pictures of other places in the Bay Area, please let me know.
