In memorium. In defiance.
This is the photograph from HPL's grave last August 20th, the one the security guard tried to force Kathryn to delete. Previously, I have printed it only in Sirenia Digest. It seems the least I can do today, to put it online:
There are two more behind the cut, two I have never shown before:
And I will note that one year after a security guard threatened to call the police for having photographed the grave, the Swan Point Cemetery's website, which has a long list of forbidden activity, still does not include photography of graves as something visitors are not permitted to do.

The only place that the "no photos" rule is posted, that we've discovered, is on a small sign, on the driver's left side as one enters the cemetery. Last year, we made an especial point to check the website, not wishing to violate any rules. There were lots of rules posted, but none about photography. We told the security guard this, and he informed us he didn't give a shit what was on the website.

He is like the French consulate in Boston! But this is no place to tell an old tale of how the list of requirements for a visa on their website did not match reality.
Actually, I'm even more reminded of a jerk security guard at the Eagle Square shopping center a few years ago who descended in full fury on my ex and me for *obeying* a sign regarding parking. He was unmoved by our gesturing at it.
Possibly I digress; it's almost 2.
