Most of the traditional Día de los Muertos decorations have been put away.
In the small El Campo Santo cemetery, marigolds are all that remain.

El Campo Santo (The Holy Field) is where many of San Diego’s earliest residents were buried. Marigolds on graves remind the living that those who founded our city are still with us.
