Visited St Louis Cemetary #1 and hung out with a lot of dead people. Fun fact, the way they traditionally dispose of dead people in New Orleans is to place the body in a coffin, then in a crypt for a year and day and essentially cook them in the Louisiana heat. Then they will have a ceremony, exhume what is left over, which is basically clothes bones and hip replacements, sweep it into a compostable burlap sack and dump it into a hole at the back of the crypt into a pit underneath. So a lot of these are family owned and when a family members dies they do that, then wait for the next one to be put in there. Fun times. For whatever reason I do love death and decay and the breakdown of things, and just as much love and new growth that comes after it and all that. #death #decay #stlouiscemeteryno1 #stlouiscemetery #neworleans #nola #crypt #whydoikeepusinghashtags (at St Louis Cemetery No. 1) https://www.instagram.com/p/BqZIFW_D3Ss/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1e4wiujl55q8e
