Seize the Day

Join Corin White, The Gravestomper, as he takes you through a most remarkable little cemetery in Lake county, IL. Small and secluded yet so full of atmosphere. The cemetery inspires the question: why don't we seize the day then get out of our own way?

Life is Short

Here's a little excercise to remind yourself why it's important to value your life and the opportunities you have here. Find a tombstone with your name on it and take a picture of yourself sitting next to it. Put the photo somewhere where you can see it all the time. It's a potent reminder that life is short and there is no reason to ever let fear stop you from doing anything that you want to do. For a close-up of my gristly reminder, click on the photo.

Entitlement Mindset

A small family Graveyard inspires the question: What are we entitled to?

Clan Mentality: a Gravestomp Through Long Grove

A fall afternoon, a Harley, a camera: sounds like the recipe for a visit to a small churchyard cemetery that felt a bit unwelcoming.

Part II:

The Orb at Millburn Cemetery.

I took this picture two years ago at Millburn Cemetery in Wadsworth, IL. This orb (in front of the pine tree; NOT the bright reflection on the tombstone, but up and to the right of it. Click on the picture to see it more clearly.) appeared after I stuck my phurba in the ground. Milburn is one of the next cemeteries I will be shooting a video stomp for.
