Happy coffin photo

Written last night:
Dear Friends ,
I forgot to mention the Día de los Muertos celebration near the farmers market on J Street last weekend —It’s about keeping the memory of beloved dead alive, and it seems a really happy festival. Thanks to what I learned last year, by Saturday I had already placed the traditional bright orange marigolds by Clark’s photo. Here is a look at this year’s feast. Most stunning to me was the bright, happy coffin where children were having their photos taken. Lettered inside the coffin is Mi casa es su casa — My house is your house. 
Love,
k
