Drat, where's everybody? I finally got home from a week of slave labour, and the internet all around me is dead. :(

I think that is a lovely tradition. We have an All Souls service at Church today.

When I was a child, we lived in a very small town in Transylvania. There was no public illumination, and the first snow fell quite early. All Souls night was particularly beautiful: the cemetery illuminated only by the candless and the whiteness of the snow, in contrast with the blackness of the soil... it's been almost fifty years that I last saw it that way, but the memory still touches me.
