Where the dead speak...


I just spent a spectacular day in Ann Arbor taking a tour of the Forest Hill Cemetary lead by Wystan Stevens, an extremely knowledgeble and funny man.
The tour runs through next weekend. If you're in the area you really should check it out.

2-5 p.m. Forest Hill Cemetery Tour.:Every Sunday, October 1-November 12. Ann Arbor's unofficial city historian, Wystan Stevens, has been leading his popular interpretive tour of Ann Arbor's oldest cemetery for over 25 years. Stevens is an enchanting, wryly humorous raconteur, and he says that "the fall is the prettiest time of year for the graveyard." If you haven't been led around Forest Hill by Wystan, you don't really know Ann Arbor! Canceled in case of heavy rain. Meet inside the gate on Observatory, just north of Geddes. $10 (children with adult, free) by advance reservation and at the gate. 662-5438.
