Birdsong, cows calling, corn growing, and graves resting This video clip from the Cressey Cemetery mid-morning on Wednesday the 9th of August records the quiet space in the shade on a warm day. Near the middle of the clip, near the middle of the frame, there is a narrow outhouse (or privy) for the convenience of burial yard visitors. The humble design for the living is one more reminder of the contrasting requirements of the living and the dead. Press L for 'lightbox' to view the clip on a black background.
