This photo has so much meaning behind it. The man walking down the bridge is my dad. The bridge is located in Four Mile, Kentucky where my dad was born and raised in a one room log cabin located in a coal mining camp. Since then the mines have been closed and the camp torn down. Walking through this area can bring back so many lost feelings to the people from this area. The memories will last for eternity but what is left is nothing. Sometimes our memories are like a cross that we must bare, which you can see on my fathers back in this photo.
