Please take a moment today to be great full all we have here in the United States of America. A day of reflection to honor all who have made great sacrifices so we can live our lives to the fullest. I pray we never suffer another day like 9/11/2001.

Enjoy your ride

that day proved that the the strength of this country is not brick and mortar but is is flesh,hope, honor and a fierce passion for freedom!

i would rather live like this man below than give up my freedom!

we all recall events of such monumental importance that we remember in detail what we were doing when they happened. This is one of those days. One of the TV stations has been showing a variety of episodes on the subject. watched one the other night that interviewed survivors of the 2nd building. What has stayed with them after this length of time was how everyone in the building rose to the occasion and started helping each other, Many of them staying in harms way just to help others. Still brings me to tears to this day.

I was working in Sikorsky Memorial Airport Stratford, CT about 50 miles from the twin towers and we could see the smoke from the towers. The airport was closed for the next few days. The quietness and in activity was nerve wracking.
