  The Man by the Mausoleum Cedar Hill Cemetery is about one and a half miles away from where I live. From time to time, when the weather permits, I hike there. Famous individuals such as John Pierpont Morgan Sr. (JP Morgan, financier) and Samuel Colt (inventor of the Colt revolver) call Cedar Hill Cemetery their final resting spots. The cemetery sits on a massive 270 acres of small rolling hills and running brooks. The mature trees and beautifully maintained landscaping adorn throughout the entire cemetery. I usually enter the cemetery through the main entrance, and the stone chapels on both sides of the gates exhibit European styled old cathedrals that seem to witness the passing of time. The magnificence of these stone chapels appear to signify how insignificant humans are in the tide of time. I especially enjoy my hike during Spring and Fall seasons as the entire cemetery puts on different dresses of splendid colors. The flower scents permeate the air during the blooming springtime
