Plaques on benches have long intrigued me and you seemed to zero in on some especially poignant expressions of loving memory. The one beginning "Tis a simple seashell.." put words to an idea that had been floating around in my head for a while. As always, your post has inspired thought and left beauty in its wake.Black Jack's Carolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18436115876996209227noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6208959268136388191.post-51764686154624649982013-11-24T13:08:12.695-08:002013-11-24T13:08:12.695-08:00I think I'd find it hard to know what to say, ...I think I'd find it hard to know what to say, but, like you, I love to read what others have written.

When it's a place the person loved, it really means a lot more than so many other things the family could do.<br /> <br />I have always wondered how much they cost -- I'm sure it varies from place to place but I've never seen anyone say anything about the cost before. <br /><br /><br /><br /> Sallie (FullTime-Life)http://www.travelingrainvilles.typepad.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6208959268136388191.post-19608755692979002282013-11-18T14:16:04.323-08:002013-11-18T14:16:04.323-08:00Lovely post on 'honoring our loved ones' ~...Lovely post on 'honoring our loved ones' ~ and love the bench photo series ~ thanks, carol, xxx<br /><br />Great shots!

He likes to leave the path and go to the place where he wants the bench, because it has a nice view of the coulee there. Lindy, however, thinks they should just stay on the path.
