The year-end holidays will be upon us before you know it. Have you started planning your menus yet? This Black-throated Blue Warbler’s suggestion: berry cobbler 😉 Be sure a post-Thanksgiving stroll is part of your tradition this year. Link in bio for details on this refreshing late-November walking tour! 📸 @erabeck #historicgreenwood #greenwoodcemetery

Missed it by *that much*! This Saturday, November

Missed it by *that much*! This Saturday, November 2nd, join us for PRESIDENTIAL LOSERS: THE MEN WHO NEARLY LED AMERICA. As the 2024 election cycle wraps up, this trolley tour will look back at candidates who came close—but missed their shot. Discover the ambitions and political heartbreaks of figures like DeWitt Clinton, who lost to Madison in 1812, and Horace Greeley, who fell to Grant in 1872, along with some lesser-known hopefuls with equally fascinating stories. Don’t miss this dive into America’s campaign history (tickets via link in bio)! #historicgreenwood #greenwoodcemetery
