Description
One of them anyhow. Yes, this is a bit taller than one first thinks while driving up to it. The view must be really terrific. I'm not sure I'd want to climb all those stairs for a quick snap or two.
We had an interesting drive thru the cemetery on our way here. The direct drive was under water due to recent rains, so we took literally the proverbial scenic route. Lots of different sections but I don't like to be a tourist in such locations... too tacky unless you have a real purpose IMO. Passing thanks to all the graves marked out with flags going back quite a number of years.
The inscription tells me that this is a centennial monument or there was a Hundred Years War in New York I'd never heard of before. A grand monument indeed.
Enjoy; thanks for viewing.
I think I found our next visitation .... stay tuned.

very impressive! Looking forward to your next destination
Wow, very impressive, amazing.
So, the doors were open to visitors. A monument from a day and age when one could afford to make them like this. As you say, the scenic route is often the one that pays off well. As for a war in New York? Ha! That gave me a good laugh. Thanks for posting this close-up photo. Puts the size into perspective! Keep up the good work! :-)
