A Ramble Through Calvary Catholic Cemetery, Winter, 2024

Odd Ones
Written By rambling seattle

This one goes through one of, if not the, oldest Catholic cemetery in the city. First established in the 1880s, over 45,000 people rest here. I feel that cemeteries are underrated quiet walks. This one was done during the rain and is a quiet, contemplative walk through what is really a beautiful space. Enjoy!
