Forest Hill Cemetery Tour. Every Sunday, September 30-November 11. Ann Arbor�s unofficial city historian, Wystan Stevens, has been leading his popular interpretive tour of Ann Arbor�s oldest cemetery for over 25 years. Stevens is an enchanting, wryly humorous raconteur, and he says that �the fall is the prettiest time of year for the graveyard.� If you haven�t been led around Forest Hill by Wystan, you don�t really know Ann Arbor! Canceled in case of heavy rain. 2-5 p.m.. meet inside the gate on Observatory, just north of Geddes. $10 (children with adult, free) by advance reservation and at the gate. 662-5438. I have wanted to do the cemetery tour for years -- anyone want to pick a Sunday and form an Ypsi contingent? The only Sunday I can't do it is 11/10 d/t a work commitment. But I will definitely go to the talk at the Whittaker Rd Library -- cool!!! I was brought up on cemetery walks, exploring outdoors while my mom visited antique shops in the little towns of South Jersey. I love looking at cemeteries, too. I guess I've visited most of the little cemeteries in the county. Always enjoyable, and moving.
The library talk is a must, yep! add your comment: |
