Seth & Aubrie Drayer

Today, the springtime clouds chose to wring out their heavy charges high above the Summit City, creating an atmosphere of gloom---the perfect setting for reflecting upon injustice which continues to stain our land. And so, this afternoon, I found myself returning to where it all began---for me.
