A moment, forever engraved in my mind. The sheer magnitude, contrasted with its emanating grace and beauty, had me speechless, as I caught a glimpse of the Iron Giant for the first time. It may not be a perfect warm beach or the sunrise over a ocean, but this place has opened my eyes to a new kind of beauty. It's a beauty changed and strengthened by human history. A beauty intensified with each story, and a beauty so breathtaking, a picture cannot even replace what the mind has captured.
