In doing archival research, I came across this photo of a 1933 Civilian Conservation Corps camp in Rock Creek, California entitled "Wash Room" (courtesy of the FDR Library Archives). It moved me. How happy they all look. They remind me to never take a hard day's work or an honest day's pay for granted. I am humbled by this photo.

I am struck by the power of art to transcend spatial and temporal boundaries. Photos like these remind me of how resilient the human spirit truly is.
