I met up with fellow Lovecraftian devotees Dan Harms (The Necronomicon Files; Encyclopedia Cthulhiana) and Bret Kramer ("Winston P" on these forums; author of Machine Tractor Station Kharkov-37) and we went on a day-long sojourn through the rambling hills of central Massachusetts, tracking down ancient cemeteries and sites that had personal meaning to HPL himself.
