Another Trip To The National Cemetery

Today was a very good day for me. I had to leave first thing this morning to take cremated remains to the National Cemetery, where the family held a service. Afterwards, we were escorted to the actual interment site. I stayed with the family until everything was completed, then I excused myself as I had business with the cemetery office. After I completed my tasks, I drove through the cemetery and took a couple of more photographs, then I hit the road for the return trip. I stopped at one my favorite fast-food burger places and had a decent lunch, then got back on the road. The whole time I was traveling I had my music cranked and was seriously enjoying the tunes. I listened to: the soundtrack to Heavy Metal, the soundtrack to Phantom of the Paradise, and the soundtrack to Electric Dreams. I didn't realize until I wrote this list just now, but every selection was a soundtrack. I do have quite a collection, but I just grabbed those particular ones last night, almost at random. Still, I had a great day, it was a nice drive up and back (about an hour each way), and when I returned things were quiet, with only a couple of tasks to complete before quitting time. I love my job!
