Photographed at North Vernon Cemetery in North Vernon, Vermont, in May 2026. It was the sort of somewhat-cloudy afternoon that’s ideal for driving through Vermont, and when you see thin old gravestones at the side of the road, you are obligated to stop and investigate.
I’ve borrowed some transcription choices from Findagrave, but I don’t entirely trust it. https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/12625409/rebecca-cunnable
