death and ashes

Apr 08, 2009 13:55


For yesterday's monthly museum field trip, my group chose the Columbarium of San Francisco, just off Anza near Stanyon. The building itself has remarkable ornamentation and baroque flair, and the contents of such a building--not only people's cremated remains, but other memorabilia as well--make a person feel a bit sad and sentimental and touched.
Lots of gay couples have chosen to remain here together, making this monument a sturdy piece of evidence for legalizing the relationship held already by same-sex couples. Together in eternity.
