Don,
Thanks for reminding me. I do distinctly remember putting up the flag right after the buildings collapsed. And I do remember, since the flag was flying close to the door, the feeling I had as the National Emblem brushed against my arm later as I walked out doors.
I worked in central New Jersey for a year and a half and every week I would drive down N.J. 22 on the way home from Newark with those towers in view. One time I drove home with my grand daughter and I carefully pointed where to look as they came into view. And I have many hours sitting in the terminal with those two buildings across the river from me. My sense of loss was very real. I know that it is difficult for the "locals" to appreciate that those structures, and New York City itself, belong to the whole country.

(1) Forward this email. (Please don't be the one to break this chain. Take a moment to think back to how you felt on 9/11 and let those sentiments guide you.
(2) Fly an American flag of any size on 9/11. Honestly, Americans should fly the flag year-round, but if you don't, then at least make it a priority on this day.
Thank you for your participation. God Bless You and God Bless America !!!!
