Oregon Holocaust Memorial in Washington Park

Yesterday for my PSU class "Museums and Memory in Israel and the US", I drove the other four students to Washington Park where we met with a docent and learned inside details about why, how and when the Oregon Holocaust Memorial was created.  It was an emotional experience to revisit the injustice of Germany during WWII.

While we were walking, I took the opportunity to take some photos of the beautiful rhododendrons that are presently in bloom.  Weather here is perfect for these lovely flowering shrubs so there's color and beauty everywhere in the city right now..............
