Lots of room there for future growth. Every place I want to be buried is too crowded. I don’t want to be crowded when I’m dead. Cause I’ll be dead a long time, and it would get wearying after a while.

Not my photo, but one that my father brought back from the Philippines after his service there.

Where is that, if I might ask? And the significance?

It's from the cemetery at Manzanar in Eastern California where the US interned Americans of Japanese descent (Sansei), Japanese Americans (Nissei) and Japanese Nationals (Issei) for the duration of WWII in one of about a dozen concentration camps.

Thank you. Nice shot.

Larry,

Thanks, I have a rather mixed opinion of it and I kind of wished I used a different aspect ratio. Oh well.

Wyoming has the remnants of one of these camps that you can visit for yourself.
Most of us Americans in our lifetimes visit them if for no other reason as a reminder.

I’ve been there, a few years ago, now. A reminder that life isn’t always fair.
