We all have family stories. I love listening to them as they reveal so much about each member of the family. My mother told me one that always made me chuckle. When I was needing to write a short story, I thought of this event. I knew only the fact that my grandmother, my mother, and my father went to the cemetery before my parents were married. There they unknowingly crossed passed with crooks.

Yes, the story centers around a picnic at a cemetery. That was common for me as a child. The graveyard was situated next to a church. My grandmother would go to tend to the graves of her parents. We'd always take a lunch out there to sit on the church steps and eat. Wonderful memories come from that cemetery. That is why I like cemeteries to this day.

Behind every story is a story. It might be a dream. It might be an actual event. But there is always something lurking there that is quite interesting.

If you want to read my short story, the link is at the bottom of this post. Read it and enjoy it. Share it with your friends. Always share great stories that you encounter.
