legally, at least, i think this is easier said than done. (except
for the dying part, which is pretty simple.) the authorities take
a dim view of burying bodies in the back yard.

I wonder if she meant buried without embalming. That's legal here
but has to be done within 24 hours or something of the time of death.

...but i still don't think you can plant the body wherever you want.

No one said anything about burying bodies wherever they want.

well, being buried where you can rot and be food for worms and plants kind
of implies outside traditional cemeteries. all i'm saying is that as of
today there aren't many such areas you can do that legally.

i approve of the idea, since it's all romantic 'n' ***.
