Default 9/11 Remembered
When I saw this today it brought tears to my eyes. It's so sad that it took such a tragedy to bring us so close as a country. I hope and pray that no lives are lost this year on the anniversary of 9/11.

It would be wonderful if the solidarity of 9/12 continued through this day into the future. This is a memorable display.

Thank you for posting that photo. It has been 12 years, but sometimes it seems like it happened yesterday.

Beautiful sight. Nothing like Old Glory. Wounds still bleed.

I took about 15 pics on Sunday, I don't think any were as good as the one you posted with the flag in the backround..

Default Thank you for the flags and the pictures of the flags.
A beautiful way to remember a horrible day in our history that changed us all, whether we were at ground zero or in Ohio or California.

We lost our innocence on that day and learned to lean on each other.

We won't forget. We ARE Americans. We will continue brave and strong but forever changed.
