Backyard of the Day:

Saint Patrick's Cemetery, Fairfax Township, Linn County, Iowa

Saint Patrick's Cemetery is located on Saint Patricks Road south of Fairfax Township in Linn County, Iowa

 

Det blev ikke til så meget med opdagelserne i dag, for der skulle købes både menneske- og hundemad og der skulle vaskes tøj, så vi holdt os omkring Iowa City, selvom vi hellere ville ha' været på farten. Vi fandt tid til et lillebitte svinkeærinde ud af landevejen nordvest for byen, og faldt over en lille kirkegård, der hed Saint Patrick's.

We didn't do a whole lot of exploring today, because there were both groceries and dog food to be bought and laundry to be done, so we stayed around Iowa City, although we would have rather hit the road. We had time for a little bit of meandering out the highway northwest of the city, and fell over a little cemetery called Saint Patrick's.

"Kære Moder, hvor længe på jordens tornede stier har dine fødder trådt. For endelig at finde denne fredfyldte hvile i Guds favn."

"Dear Mother in Earth's thorny paths how long thy feet have trod. To find at last this peaceful rest safe in the arms of God."
