727. Simulacra by: Simulacra Managers Simulacra are inanimate objects - usually stones, rock walls, old tree trunks, plants, patches of peeling paint, rust spots, and so on that have uncanny resemblances to inanimate things. Often tricks of light and shadow make these objects fleeting, and hard to see again. |
728. Pet Cemeteries by: Pet Cemeteries Managers Our pets are brought into our homes and our hearts, where they are cherished and loved. We talk to them, sharing our secrets, dreams, and fears with them. We trust them with our hearts and they listen to all we have to say. What more could we possibly ask for?
Unfortunately our treasured companions have much shorter life spans than we do. So having these final resting places sometimes can make it easier.
