3000 FLAGS

Keller, TX

3000 American Flags were placed in Keller, TX for all of the victims of the 9/11 tragedy 5 years ago. They lined the streets and as I passed them I prayed. Our hearts and prayers go out to all of those who lost someone in that fateful day. A day that no American will ever forget. We can all tell you exactly where we were and what we were doing when we heard of the tragedy. It touched each and everyone of us. I shed tears today as I did 5 years ago. I remember that I was with my boss, who is originally from NY City and who had relatives still there. We closed the office and were glued to the TV all day. The thing that sticks out in my memory was the silence of the days to come. No planes were flying except for military jets and helicopters. Everyone lit candles and put them on their front porches and prayed together, cried together and stood together to help each other. Together we will stand united!

Thank you, Cindi! I cried when I got to this intersection this morning. I looked left and I looked right and there were flags as far as my eyes could see. I drove the entire street where they were lined up this afternoon...I can't put into words how awesome this is.

Wonderful Tribute Cindi. GMV (On another note today is the birthdate of a couple of good friends of mine. So a mixture of emotions for many that similarly celebrate birthdays, wedding anniversaries, etc...)
