3. Carry that Weight

Klamath Falls, OR

There are some weights we never rid from ourselves. This is a Vietnam War Veteran visiting the "Wall" today. It is a half sized replica that tours the US to remember those that were lost during that devisive time.

The weight of grief and loss is the hardest to carry. Very strong image.

Appropriate title. The weight is always there, like the shadow. Superb image for the challenge.

What great contribution to the challenge. I didn't know there was a traveling replica of the wall.

Excellent tribute! It is a sacred place in D.C. I'd not seen the mobile one; thanks for sharing this excellent picture.

I've seen this wall before. It may be 1/2 size, but it is still FULL of emotions. Great for our challenge and for Independence day. V
