Remebering 9/11 Eight Years Later...

Eight Years ago our lives were forever changed.... I think as an American, and also as an Air Force Wife it is very important to pay tribute every year to all of those who lost their lives on September 11, 2001. I also feel it important to pay tribute to those men and women who serve our country in one form or another. Last year I posted New York, and Ground Zero, this year however, I wanted to post The Pentagon Memorial. Kevin and I just visited there in April, as it only very recently opened. It was beautiful and humbling all at the same time. We were told at the site by a grounds women, that the benches pointing toward the pentagon are in honor of the lives that were taken inside of the building, the benches pointing away from the building are in honor of those who died in the plane. Please hug a loved one today...
