Memorial Day

Vietnam Memorial at Sunset


This is the memorial of my generation, decorated with the sun.

The last wars have not granite memorials, but remembrance in the heart.

You know hathor I have literally rode my bike by that area a hundred times over the last 4 years while riding my bike and at that time period too. But I have never really stopped to check out that memorial. One of these days I will have to actually spend a little time down doing just that.

When I visited the Smithsonian some years back, it never occurred to me to visit the monument. I always thought that it was a powerful memorial and after seeing some of the pictures I wish I would have seen it then.
