A Day to Remember...

I am sure we all know where we were and what we were doing 9/11/01.
My daughter started pre-school that day and my husband had just retired from the Air Force a few months earlier.  I was sure he would be recalled and was not looking forward to that phone call.
I remember the city of  Las Vegas being so quite with no aircraft in the air.
It was an eerie strange day.
I was so thankful my husband was not recalled back to the military and luckily for me I did not have any direct connection to anyone who had lost their life that day. 
 But still a sad and devastating day. 
To honor all the victims of Patriot's Day I will be giving away one of these painted flags to anyone who leaves a comment on my blog today telling me what was their feeling of that day or what stands out in their mind the most about this event.
This giveaway will end tonight at midnight MST (Mountain Time).
I will use random.org to pick from the comments.
The winner will be announced tomorrow.
Remember the past but enjoy today,
Barb
