VIEW FROM THE CEMETERY
     This is a view of the mountains as seen from the cemetery. You might notice that the cemetery is isolated some 3 or 4 miles from downtown "Cuatro Cienegas" the town where Gustavo Adolfo Salinas died. During summer it gets pretty warm, but in winter, sometimes it gets below freezing. The landscape is amazing.
 

 
 
 
 
THE CEMETERY WALL
     We visited the cemetery on a Sunday Morning. Dowtown we asked for directions to get to the cemetery. The lady at the grocery store was surprised to meet someone asking about the cemetery and she wondered who we were going to visit. She said Gustavo Adolfo was well known in the town, but had his character.
     This was actually the second picture I took when we got to the cemetery. We actually didn't know where he was buried. Amazingly, Gustavo's burial site is right in the middle of the picture, just behind the wall. It took us about an hour to find the place.
