IMPRESSIONS OF GRANT’S TOMB, WINTER

Yet another place near home I finally got around to visiting. My friend Kate’s in town, so I took her and and her friend Allison when we had some spare time. What a strange place, all morose and majestic. No one there except us and the staff in a vacuous hall with a tremendous dome ceiling and the ambient hum of fans stirring the air. One of the park people was eager to share information on the Civil War, that event most Americans forget happened or have no idea even occurred.
