With the Fourth of July just a couple days away, I am feeling very patriotic. I have my flag out in front of my home and I am looking forward to fireworks...
I ran across this famous photo and thought it was appropriate to post it.

When 9/11 hit I was right in this chair and I will NEVER FORGET.
We must remember that day and the people who died. For some reason it feels like yesterday to me...

We will never forget. Every day we are reminded of just how tenuous life is and can be.
June - I agree and I am thankful for every day!
Charles,
Certainly a sad reminder but something we should never forget.

Charles thanks for posting a real symbol of our freedom and the cost it often takes. I think there is no one who was alive in the USA that will ever forget where he/she was when 9-11 was announced and we all looked at the devastation in our own backyard.
I lived in NYC. I will never forget. Thanks for the photo this morning.
Charles, thank you for this simple, yet so powerful post. We will never forget.
Very powerful photo. It was that day that ultimately got me into real estate just so I could reduce the amount of flying I was doing.
Tonights my VA Hopsital visit. We take food and drinks out and play bingo with the patients and hand out cash and VA bucks to be used in the commisary. Its shocking to see the number of Iraq Veterns from both wars that we cater to. Find a Vet or a family of a Vet and thank them for their service.
I have not decided where to watch the fireworks. NYC, Washington DC or Boston. Perhaps I will see two displays. Picture in Picture has some advantages, HDTV is freat. I can be in any city I want and never have to leave home!
Hey, Charles. I have to say that this is one of my favorite. Thanks, Jim
Happy 4th!!!!
Charles,
I totally agree! And if anyone has forgotten 911, shame on them...!!! Thanks, Fran
Charles, Thanks for bring this all into prospective, We all must keep this in mind with budget cuts and all...
Hello Charles, I will NEVER forget either. Like you, I remember exactly where I was, and can clearly see the TV reports as I sat in total shock, hardly believing what I was looking at. A good reminder for this holiday weekend.

Hi Charles:
Americans need to be reminded of 9-11 everyday and Never forget.
Have a Happy 4th.
Charles - thank you for the reminder. It is certainly a day that I will never forget. An appropriate picture for this weekend.
I am glad to see so many people are remembering...
Charles - I'm a New Yorker and I will never forget. We have a copy of that picture at my house which my husband had it framed.
Charles, I do not think that any true American will ever forget...

My wife and I still wear the rememberance stickers on the back windows of our vehicles. We cannot ever forget.
