Dravland Cemetery




A pioneer cemetery near Oungre, Saskatchewan.  I love the name and the design of the sign, both of which are somewhat ominous and add some drama to the otherwise familiar prairie scene.


The cemetery is at the top of a low rise.


The Norwegian names of Hansen, Larsen and Petersen are prevalent here.


The cemetery is still in use and has lots of room for newcomers.

There were a few raindrops that day but for the most part the clouds were just putting on a good show.
