Blacon Cemetery outside Chester, Staffordshire, England. |

This is one of many serenely lovely and well-kept Commonwealth cemeteries built by the War Graves Dept. of the British Government in countries where battles were fought, or in this case, airfields were located. My dad is buried here and my mother and I came to pay our respects in 2002. |
