9/11

Never forget.  Take some time when you read this to thank those you may know who have served or are now serving to protect this great nation both at home and abroad. 

If you want an example of the bravery of the men and women who responded that day look up Stephen Siller, the inspiration behind the Tunnel to Towers Run

And please, please, please always remember.  With our vast selection of channels on TV I could only find 2 channels that had anything about 9/11.  The channels we normally watch for news and special event coverage were Saturday morning cartoons.  I find it hard to believe that we are already more concerned about the entertainment of our children than taking a little time to remember the lives that were lost.  Our house is the only one on the street with a flag flying- because I put it up.  We do have to continue our lives, but never- NEVER- forget.

  1. That is really sad. I'm glad you put a flag out. I didn't even think about putting out a flag. But also, I don't actually have a flag to put out. I did remember though. Roy and I talked about it a bit and we did a service project.
    It is an emotion provoking day.
