Escape!
Yesterday I had an adventure.
The weather was fairly nice and I decided to take a walk. Walking around Lawrenceville isn't that exciting and I always feel like I'm intruding on someone's lawn, since everyone's lawn is the sidewalk. Anyway, because of that, I walked over to the Allegheny Cemetery. Its a very beautiful place and I had a great time tooling around for a little over an hour. I even found Stephen C. Foster's grave. Pretty cool.
But then I heard a loud cawing noise. I turned... and the sky was black. It seems that I had disturbed the crow kingdom that, unbeknownst to me, was roosting in the Allegheny Cemetery. That was adventure number 1.
After a car drove by and scared them back into submission, I decided to head home. It was almost 6 o'clock, and I didn't want to miss the Simpson's reruns on the WB. As I approached the gate, something looked wrong. I got closer and realized what it was. The gate was locked!! Every exit that I could find was chained and locked. So, I scaled an 8 foot fence that borders the main drag in Lawrenceville and jumped down. I got some weird looks, to say the least.
I missed half of the Simpson's, but it was worth it. How many other people can claim to have escaped from a cemetery??!!!
