Right away, however, I realized she was right.
Cemeteries are great places to walk, especially older cemeteries.
Lots of people tend to get supersticiously freaked out, though, or they just plain don't get it. A few weeks ago, when some of my friends and I took a trip to Monterey, our hotel room was right next to a cemetery. You could literally walk out 20 feet from our patio door and be among the headstones. We went out for a walk there in the late afternoon, and although two of my friends found it too creepy for their liking, another of my friends and I found it really interesting. Add to that the view of the Monterey lighthouse, and it's really cool.
