Spring Tidying
Today is the first day of spring according to the Georgian calendar and there's been a bit of tidying up going on behind the scenes with my computerized cemetery information and on this blog itself.
I am have wicked fun with Blogger in Draft template designer. (If you use Blogger I urge you to go have fun yourself!)
You may have noted the new pages beneath the masthead image called "Cemetery List" for collecting together the complete data relevant to each cemetery, and "Bookshelf" which lists book and article titles I have read that are related to cemeteries in some manner. More pages will be following in the future.
PDF documents containing data for Holy Trinity churchyard have been added to the MasterList page. I've been sitting on some information for Holy Trinity churchyard and Foxdale cemetery over the winter months and feel that they should "bud" their way onto the Internet like the spring flowers soon will be.
Depending if I get roped into house spring cleaning I might also get the Foxdale inscription record up today as well.

Amusment of Typos
I find myself endlessly amused and enjoying various types of typos, whether they be online, on paper, or carved in stone.
On a Friday recently at the post office I saw a funeral announcement for a Algernon "Sonny" Holmes. This instantly gained my attention because of 'my' Algernon Holmes buried in Holy Trinity at Sturgeon Valley. (Sonny's obituary that followed in the weekly newspaper publication confirmed his identity as the 102 year old son of 'my' Algernon.)
His funeral notice however had me snicker I admit and wonder where exactly was "Shellbrook Cametery." What is a 'cametery'? And how in the world do you mistype that in this day and age with spell check on all document programs, emails, blogs, and associated? (Plus when I mistyped 'cemetery' on occasion in the beginning I was far more likly to type 'cemtery.')
Someone else caught the error though and informed the writers and when I went to work the following Monday the notice had been reprinted and reformatted with the correct spelling of "Shellbrook Cemetery."
