Hollywood Cemetery Tour

Hollywood Forever Cemetery

On the last day of my California trip in March, Laura of Laura's Miscellaneous Musings generously offered to  take Carlos and I to two Hollywood cemeteries: Hollywood Forever and Westwood Village Memorial Park. It's been a dream of mine to pay my respects to those from the golden age of Hollywood who have left us. Here are some photos from our tour.

The birds at Hollywood Forever Cemetery are very aggressive. This angry fellow chased me away from McDaniel's memorial!
