After entering the grounds of Rosehill Cemetery, an enormous area with trees, monuments, ponds and graves awaits the visitor, who is advised to explore the cemetery by car.
Days before, heavy thunderstorms had raged over the city, and we could see the consequences everywhere in Rosehilll Cemetery: torn down branches, and even trees blocking several of the many roads leading through the cemetery. The cemetery is laid out spaciously, with many lanes, squares, and monumental pieces of art like obelisks and statues. Here, some of the big-shots of Chicago history are buried: politicians, sportsmen, architects, bankers, actors and actresses.... Some were relocated from the old City Cemetery in Chicago. But we were not looking for big names - we just wanted to have a view of the cemetery itself.
