Description

This is actually a family mausoleum, not a ruin. The attached website will give you a pretty good overview of the place. I'll be posting more pictures of the McMillin Mausoleum, but this is sort of an introduction. McMillin Mausoleum And yes, if you were wondering, people say it's haunted. Of course they do. McMillin Mausoleum aka/ "Afterglow Vista" Just outside of Roche Harbor San Juan Island Washington State

What a great location. To spend eternity in the middle of a patch of woods must give solace to the soul.

Amazing! and what a history!
(I had a huge problem with the word, 'Symbology' in the text. We say symbolism in this context. anything 'ology' usually means 'the study of...') Two nations divided by a single language!

That’s what it means here, too. Whoever wrote that probably thought they were being fancy. It SHOULD be “symbolism.”

I read the article. It's sick that not even a grave is safe from vandals.

Ah, what an image...the play of light and shadows...the tall, stately evergreens embracing the family's final resting place. The striking blue sky. This speaks to me. What a feel this has.

(I'm just waiting for you or bill to finally pan each other's shots: "I almost puked..."; "use shadow much???" or, "how is it I got a reeeeallly great shot of this, and you came up with this???" I'd pay you to pull that off before I die...) Ok, I'm with bill 100%, and a bunch of others above: Love the play of shadow, and many different lights here too. And the mausoleum columns have the most beautiful bright light---maybe they built it to catch the light (as various sacred sights do, across the world) (I didn't read the readout on this, only for lack of time, not lack of interest). And a big tree in front as if to say this is sacred ground and one doesn't pass without a reason. Beautiful, and best full size.

(And re symbology---you and Andrea: The proper term is "symbolmentification".) (that's not funny or interesting...I have no idea why I wasted your time...)

Well, it certainly looks like a place that would be haunted. Great photo, Tara. It certainly captures the solemn atmosphere. I'll have to take a peek at that website.
