On Tour in the USA

[Cicero]

You can come to NM and meet me in Taos. There is a tiny museum there with a stuffed 8 legged lamb. The museum is a a dedication to the "Bent" massacre. I am not really sure if it is commemorated to remind the gringos not to get out of line, or if people really did feel bad for the situation....Interesting town.....


There is also a graveyard where they don't bury their dead very well, and not very deep, in the middle of the city. The groundhogs dig holes right into the graves and come out another side with fresh dead. This creates ventilation for the smell of death that they try and cover up by planting large amounts of lilacs. So you pretty much smell corpses and lilacs. I enjoy it because I am creepy. People still love to be buried there so I guess they enjoy it too. It is the strangest graveyard I think i have ever seen. The cultural influences are spanish, mexican, native american, and of course whities. Some are buried really shallow so there are mounds. Then you see a hole dug that goes straight into the mound. lol! They also leave objects indicating things the person enjoyed, as most likely- a year round celebration of the "days of the dead". It's very festive with plastic flowers and random stuff everywhere. It's actually one of my favorite places. lol!


Yes. I am creepy. I like strange stuff. lol!!
