Divine's Grave

Yes, you know...the actor/actress who ate doggy do-do at the end of the John Waters classic, Pink Flamingos. Actually, Divine was quite a good actor in his own right, and he could sing disco with the best. Anyway, his grave is in the middle of downtown suburban Towson, MD...about 25-30 minutes north of downtown B-more. In the Prospect Hill cemetery, Divine, aka Glenn Milstead is buried among family. Last time I went, there were lipstick marks, a christmas tree made from fake nails, and some hand made signs. Also, if you like Divine, check out the Divine statue in the American Visionary Art Museum -- absolutely fabulous.
