9.11




9.11     A day of remembrance.

Most years, I'm at work but today was a day off.  I got myself up early and headed over to Tempe Town Lake where it was the 12th Annual Healing Field event.  A flag for every victim on 9.11 is erected, each with a name on them.  It's quite the event, and so very moving.

I wasn't anywhere near NYC when it happened, but it touched my life along with every other American.






Each flag has a name attached. 
A random shot of this one names

Keefe, Bruyette and Woods 
as a bonds salesman.



There are no words to describe how it feels to see
so many flags in one place.
Even more, how it feels knowing that each flag
represents a person tied to an event that changed the entire world.

May we never forget.
