Cities Of The Dead: Grace Cemetery, St Francisville, Louisiana

The video that started the channel; filmed just over a year ago on my first visit to St. Francisville, Louisiana. I recognized that it might be awhile before I'm able to go back, so I took advantage of the opportunity. The cemetery surrounds a historic church, perched atop a hill. Add in the ambiance of hundred-year-old oaks, and the sounds of summer in The South, and it made for a memorable visit.

No microphone, no selfie stick, and a lot edited out due to my thumb. I boosted the audio and filtered out some noise, and result was an "underwater effect". I'm afraid that continues for the next few videos until a microphone was obtained.

Cities Of The Dead

Last October, I started a channel on YouTube exploring cemeteries in New Orleans, and any others I encounter in The South. It just occurred to me that maybe I should be sharing those adventures here since it does fall in line with the purpose of this blog.

The purpose of the channel is to document the cemeteries, because they've been such a mesmerizing, fascinating, and educational part of my time in New Orleans. I don't know if I will be here forever, and if I'm not, I wanted to have documentation of these fascinating locations. There's is something unique about each and every one, so filming only the most well known leaves a huge gap in the story.

Anyway - I will catch up this blog with where I am at in the filming. But for now - here's the original, unlisted, intro. Featuring the music of Green Building.
