Pictures from the Grassy Knoll

I spent a week in Dallas. I know, very exciting. One of the only really cool things we did was go see the site of the Kennedy Assassination, The Sixth Floor Museum, and the Grassy Knoll. We went down to the corner on Sunday night. There were two guys who have believe whole-heartedly in the conspiracy theory and shared everything that they know. It was extremely interesting to listen to them. A few days later we went to The Sixth Floor Museum. There was an audio tour that walked through the time line of the assassination. The really eerie part of the tour was the seeing the corner with the boxes of books stacked up where Oswold (supposedly, conspiracy, perhaps) hid and shot Kennedy.

It's scary to look at the road and see the two "X"s in the road, marking the two shots that hit Kennedy. From the sixth floor, it is easy to imagine the shots. However, walking around the grassy knoll, it easy to imagine another shooter hiding behind the picket fence (which is still there.)

There is a lot of evidence to support a conspiracy theory. Seeing this history in action, has really made it real and gotten me to think more about it. And being able to see and walk on the grassy knoll was amazing!
