Karen and Lee Duquette
walked along "The Wall" in Paducah, Kentucky

First Lee and Karen Duquette walked along the left side of the wall as they studied the photos and the informative plaques in front of each photo. Unfortunately, on this left side, there was a divider between visitors and the photos, which prevented Karen from getting close to the murals and from getting close-up photos of most of the informative plaques. But Karen stuck her camera between the wire holes in the fence (as shown in the first photo below) and then she photographed everything to the best of her ability. Photos came out great, but not the informative plaques.

Below: In-between the left side of the wall and the right side of the wall, there was an opening which allowed Lee and Karen Duquette to view a couple of signs and the Historic River Front.
