RED, WHITE AND BLUE AND THE IMAGE OF A CROSS

Bedford, TX

Today is the 7th anniversary of 9/11 and as I was driving, I took a picture of the flag at half mast and the cross is one my Dad carved for me and it always hangs from my rearview mirror. I didn't realize it had gotten into the shot as I thought I had a clear shot when I hit the button. I like that it showed up in the image....wasn't planned by me but probably someone much greater. May we never forget!
