A portable tribute to some of the nation's veterans is drawing visitors to East Aurora this weekend.
More that 1,000 motorcyclists traveled down Transit Road with the American Veterans Traveling Wall this week.
The wall now stands at Knox Farm State Park.
If you want to see the wall, bring good walking shoes because it's far from most parking places.
It's also worth the time it takes to visit.
"Come, walk by this wall, find in this wall, names. I have a cousin on this wall, it means something. It's personal," said Mark Thomas, of Knox Farm State Park.
The moving wall will be at Knox Farm State Park for viewing anytime through 7 p.m. on Monday.
