      And to cemeteries. Some of the cemeteries here are enormous and they keep them watered and green despite the fact that we’ve had hardly any rain for months and the cems get just a handful of visitors per day.

        I still don’t understand why cremation isn’t a bigger thing. Or allowing people to donate themselves as fertilizer
