One of my all time favorite films.  I can't count how many times I have seen it.

This is fun for anyone interested in the current Broadway CHESS.

The stars of CHESS work up a lighthearted flowchart to help explain the goings-on in the plot. :)

My neighbor Ann stopped by. She's excited because she's going tonight to the opening of Chess.


Is she involved with the show?

Yesterday, while my son was doing his climbing class, I went in search of a “lost” cemetery I’d read about. The British Columbia Penitentiary Cemetery. My GPS led me to a cemetery I’d already written about, a cemetery from an old asylum. I tried a different GPS and it led me to a park a couple miles away. Using the walking function I realized I’d have to walk up a ravine and a hill I’d just come from. The first GPS was right. The penitentiary cemetery was near the old asylum cemetery but hidden behind a high rise apartment tower. Back I went and there it was. Took some photos of this cemetery where the graves are only marked with the late prisoners’ numbers. None more recent than 1960.

But while on that detour drive, I’d noticed yet another municipal cemetery, so I went and took some photos. This is all in New Westminster, BC. We have a photo call out for people to send in images of birds in cemeteries so I was able to capture a couple and some other neat headstones.

I look that cemetery up this morning and now I’m kicking myself because it is the place where Raymond Burr is buried. So I’ll go back and get a photo of his grave next week.

He was buried in the town where he was born.  I'm curious if he has other family members in the cemetery.  I found the answer :)

"in the family plot alongside his parents. The grave is a flat marker located near the cemetery office."
