graffiti given a purpose

My niece sent this to me. It was too good to not share it. Whatever we think of the war, there are lives involved that should be honored.



There is a huge rock near a gravel pit on Hwy.25 in rural Iowa.
For generations, kids have painted slogans, names, and obscenities on this rock, changing its character many times.

A few months back, the rock received its latest paint job, and since then it has been left completely undisturbed.

It's quite an impressive sight.

Be sure to scrolldown and check out the multiple photos. (all angles) of the rock.

I thought the flag was draped over the rock, but it's not. It's actually painted on the rock too.















Here's the artist... Ray "Bubba" Sorensen.



AWESOME Work, RAY... Thank you!

Brings a tear to my eye. Hopefully they can make a copy and have it enshrined in the Smithsonian.

Breathtaking.

Certainly makes my day seeing that.
