Vietnam Veterans Memorial Wall
Yesterday I took a quick trip to DC for my "exercise walk." I went to the Wall which is always, well, difficult or at least a bit emotional. I knew what to expect, that is, that no one would be there. And there wasn't anyone there, or rather, only a few...five over the thirty minute period I was there. I sat next to the wall and walked on the walk for almost an hour before I ducked over to the Lincoln Memorial.
I was moved to show an image from several years ago that contrasts with the scene I found yesterday. Yesterday's was a lonely walk.
