I love it!<br /><br />This is another of the &#39;high school locker room&#39; variety of columbariums. I have not found any like that as yet around where I live - or, indeed, in wider Australia. We tend to have brick walls. I will try to work up some images for next week.<br /><br />Human beings are strange creatures. We moved from wanting to be buried to wanting to be cremated. However, there is now just as much rigmarole with the cremation process as with burial. And cremation storage is taking up nearly as much room as to be buried.<br /><br />Thank you for your ongoing interest in Taphophile Tragics. I hope you enjoy the variety of posts as you travel around our community.Juliehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09513648613788716017noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1687594767741711928.post-64075994473951523662012-01-24T22:28:52.290-08:002012-01-24T22:28:52.290-08:00Definitely sounds like it&#39;s worth another visit!Genehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10781731425470579255noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1687594767741711928.post-46622663041613063052012-01-24T22:09:32.685-08:002012-01-24T22:09:32.685-08:00You missed the best part. The inside. Fantastic dome, elagic stone angels, art deco beauty. Much, much more than the outside.Allison Rodmanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16644033385896607192noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1687594767741711928.post-22662185604963709622012-01-24T20:30:59.484-08:002012-01-24T20:30:59.484-08:00This is something that I ride my bike by all the time and always mean to explore, but I&#39;ve never gotten around to it. Great photos! You&#39;ve inspired me to make the trip sometime soon.Sam!http://www.blogger.com/profile/07578067022011050698noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1687594767741711928.post-23539441097294481452012-01-24T18:03:47.839-08:002012-01-24T18:03:47.839-08:00It&#39;s small and modern, so not nearly as interesting as St. Mary&#39;s Cemetery next door or Mountain View Cemetery next door to that. Both of those have their own mausoleum sections, plus a fair number of family mausoleums, and both are much older. So this was somewhat interesting, if only for the contrast.Genehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10781731425470579255noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1687594767741711928.post-54830568034487775572012-01-24T15:42:30.465-08:002012-01-24T15:42:30.465-08:00That&#39;s a very modern columbariumAnnhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03182743312553270315noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1687594767741711928.post-38962556154660543752012-01-24T15:35:32.378-08:002012-01-24T15:35:32.378-08:00Somehow, I never thought of this place as being a separate entity from St. Mary&#39;s until maybe two weeks ago.
