An unexpected journey to a "holy place"

Much of my online reading and writing is now confined to Twitter via Hootsuite.  Today I happened across an MSNBC tweet regarding Japanese internment camps.

It began a web surfing experience that I share here.

  • I found a lovely blog post by travel writer Lori Erickson  written last year: 

"Wyoming’s Heart Mountain, a WWII Internment Camp, Has Lessons for Today"

We visited the Heart Mountain site in August of 1997.  I took pictures as my sister, Donna, guided us through what remained of the camp.  




The Heart Mountain camp site was preserved and much improved over the years.
In 2011 it became the Heart Mountain Interpretive Center.  You are invited to take the virtual tour.
