At the Grand Rapids Public Museum on this annual "free museum day" that the Smithsonian Institution coordinates with its many local affiliates this special exhibition for the momentous events 56 years earlier awaits visitors. But on this sunny warm Saturday in September most people seem to be elsewhere; not looking through the permanent or the special displays.
When it comes to civil society and active participation in events, organizations, and projects, estimates show that relatively few people get personally involved, but that those who do get involved very often have a deep and abiding commitment to the cause. So this photo could be an indication of this scarce presence and scant interest in things more than a few years old. So easily are freedoms and rights taken for granted, and equally easily these can be infringed upon or eroded without advocates and vigilance.

Finally stumbled across this beautiful iconic Gillard feature. Always wondered where this was located. Wish I could have seen this trail network in its prime time.
