Never Forget

Like everyone I know, I can remember exactly where I was when I heard that airplanes had crashed into the twin towers, the Pentagon, and in the field in Pennsylvania. I also can remember the sick feeling, the anger, the astonishment, and the resolution to always remember that our country had been attacked in such a cowardly fashion.

Everywhere in the nation there were American Flags flying proudly. The entire country came together as one. We all promised we would never forget. I came up with the perfect project for myself- I would photograph every September 11 at 6:46 am mountain time- the exact time the first plane hit the World Trade Center.

Since that horrible day in 2001, memories have faded for some. There are fewer flags flying these days. Patriots are harder to find. But I have never missed my self-appointed schduled photograph. It is not always easy to get the time away from work. It is challenging when I am out of town. This project is too important to me for me to miss my schedule. Making the photos for this self-assignment will take the rest of my life, and long as I am able, I will never miss a 9 - 11 photo.

Enjoy! and please, never forget.
