My college senior thesis was on the Strategic Bombing of Germany by Allied Forces; my hypothesis was that the long range fighter (the P-51 Mustang) is what made it possible. While researching and writing, more than once I found myself in tears over the loss of both military and civilian lives.
Every Memorial Day, it is the lives lost I think of...and so instead of bbq's and vacations, a hike made sense.
Approaching storm
A day of reflection; a day to remember.
