King Remembered

I want to take a serious moment outside the fun of blogging to acknowledge the 40th anniversary of the assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. His brief blazing life was filled with such astonishing accomplishment for good, for progress, for positive change. Lost to us at the age of 39. How we miss you Dr. King.

I had forgotten how young he was! I still remember my parents shouts of shock when the news came, eyes and ears riveted to the TV screen. My parents had heard him speak in person when we lived near San Diego.

The Memphis photo blogger posted a great set of images today:
