The Heaviness of Love


I remembered the photo of the Boyer album I'd taken at the Thrift Store when I read that "a 5-foot piece of railing on the Pont des Arts bridge in Paris collapsed Sunday night under the weight of 'love locks,' padlocks attached to the bridge by couples as a display of their everlasting love."

the cover of the Boyer album looks to be the Pont Alexandre III?

Too, too symbolic...the more you try to lock love the more it crashes!
