looking at the cremation thread, here is a twist

[Cannot_Wait_4Disney]

Put em in my neighbor's barbecue. He never cleans it. CW4D burgers for everyone.

I want to go off the Mackinaw Bridge. Hopefully the family remembers to cremate me first.

As a Great Lakes Freighter passes by.......

My wishes are to be placed in with my Mom's ashes, but if I had to be scattered and it was allowed I'd love to be sprinkled over Cinderella Castle. I know that's the expected answer, but it's where I'm happiest.

A friend said that since I was an artist, some of my ashes should mixed with paint and made into a painting. My luck I'd wind up at Goodwill with a 50% off sticker.

Off of Virgin Gorda, where my great grandfather, great grandmother, grandfather and grandmother were tossed. I expect my folks will go there eventually...might as well make it a big family affair!

The beach.

Unfortunately, that's illegal in the United States.

If you had to be cremated and your ashes spread somewhere , where is it ?

I cant decide to the block where I grew up or the Vegas strip

There's ashes on the casino floors of where they like to gamble.

Space would be cool.

An active volcano - the next time it erupts, a small amount of those ashes would be me. I wonder how far around the world my ashes could go?

How would that be managed? Might need a helicopter.

That's for my executor to figure out! (just kidding)

Probably a helicopter. You can hike to Mt. Vesuvius and look in the crater, but it's considered to be dormant. I guess I should consult with a vulcanologist before putting anything in writing.

Now that would be wayyyy cool, Dan. One of the sons better have his marine tracker up that day.

.....or at the goodwill outlet store....by the pound.....BBQ croquets could be blended with your ashes...of course that was in the old days, at least here in oregon....where the bins were just pilled high, including full blown used hibachi after a picnic. been awhile since I have seen that type of garbage........anyhow....most paintings on canvas are purchased at the goodwill store outlet store.

As a pale redhead, I'm not a fan of the outdoors. I've asked DH to bury me under the house and not in a container. I'm happiest at home.

...yep so is ash from fireworks,,,touching sun burned dead sea mammals and ash from burnt trash,,, recognizable by all those melted waterbottles....but hey...cigarette butts are still the cool memento of a day at the beach.

 

[Micca]

I think I like to be scattered like Walter and The Dude did for Donnie in The Big Lebowski. I'd post a link but...language.

If one could manage to get your ashes into lava, they would just vaporize. Getting that kind of access is not easy though. I don't think the National Park Service would allow it. They require that any dispersal of cremains be done away from where others can see it.

I wasn't thinking maybe Mt St Helen's but the Forest Service seems to have a blanket prohibition against it.

Neither burial nor scattering of ashes are an appropriate use of the forests and are not authorized on the lands of the National Forest System. The placing of remains creates a permanent occupancy of the land and the placing of headstones or monuments documenting the location are similarly permanent. Placing of statues, flowers and other items of remembrance would be considered a monument.​

Only in death could I attain that coveted female figure.

 

[fla4fun]

Well, if just totally disregard any rules or laws, since this is just a fun question, my first choice would be Stonehenge.

Thinking of the real world, and practicalities, I don’t know. Every place I have an attachment to has rules saying no. Maybe by the time it really matters, the rules will have changed.

It's in my will -- Lake Superior (Upper Peninsula).

This sounds like fun to me. Keep on traveling, even after death.
