    This memorial destined for oblivion

    These sculptures made of salt are on display in Occidental Park (right outside the BD office). Go see them before it starts raining!

    Quoted: Titled "Lot's Tribe," the figures are intended as memorials for the "post- 9/11 world," Magrath said. They're based on Associated Press photos he saw on the Internet from the Iraq war: A squatting young boy with his hands tied behind him, wearing a blindfold; a father rushing forward, holding the body of his lifeless son; and a sitting figure whose face is contorted with sorrow, a witness at a tragedy.
