New Albany National Cemetery, Indiana

For any number of reasons, I've always felt a special connection to United States National Cemeteries.  Usually referred to as "Military Cemeteries," these green spaces are the final resting places of millions of American veterans and their spouses.  This is a brief photo tour of the one located in New Albany, Indiana.

The Lost John Pectol Road Bridge, New Albany, Indiana

 

The world around us is always changing, never to be nailed down.  A building is built one day, while another is leveled that same day.  Our memories and our photos try to document what we see, but even they fade.  This, is the story of a bridge that we missed.

Nuclear Fall Out Shelter Sign - New Albany, Indiana

I found this Cold War relic in the stairway of the Floyd County Court House in New Albany, Indiana.  A lot of old public buildings will still have fall out shelters in their basements, but the signage in most places has been removed.  I may return one day to get some pictures of the basement, but the door was locked at the time when I took this picture.
