Dave, thanks ever so much! Your kind words are always an inspiration. What's ironic is the Blue Ridge Parkway has about a zillion trees along its route, so one has to use their imagination when a single tree appears to be on it's own (as a better and different view of this tree illustrates and will be posted in the future). Whether it be a single tree, an isolated animal separated from it's herd or an individual alone in the vast wilderness...it often evokes a strong emotion, maybe because we are creatures that feel most at home in the company of others?Love that lone tree, Dave!!!:thumbs:
Thank you very much to show this . The culture of memory must never ever die .On this date, January 27, 1945, the Red Army liberated Auschwitz. My grandparents, who by that time were living in the U.S., were from Budapest and Bratislava. Members of their family were killed in Auschwitz. Among those who survived was a Hungarian nephew and his future wife (who had been a subject of Mengele's twins experiments). This photo shows the railway ramp that was placed in operation in May 1944 to expedite the killing of more than 400,000 Jews from Hungary.
