In Evansville, IN we found this interesting architecture
on this high school. Check out the right side
of the picture.
Doesn't the right side look like it is crooked?
It reminds us of the Weasly house from Harry Potter.
Last minute we took a side trip here.
Please click on this to enlarge.
This is what the previous sign was referring to.
An actual picture of the fire.
We were amazed at how quickly the
events happened. Personally, I do not
know where these people from Flight 93
got the courage to do what they did
to save others in Washington, DC.
There is a rather long walk to the wall of remembrance
and there are a few cut outs in this lower wall
where tokens of love have been left. When we
were here years ago, there were large fences
where there were 15,000 plus memorials
left. I took pictures and posted a few on my blog.
I asked the park ranger what happened to them.
She told me that when the visitor center is complete,
a rotating wall of remembrance will have all
the memorials that are currently packed away.
The large boulder you see in the center is the
impact point of Flight 93.
The Wall of Remembrance.
Here are listed the 40 names of those who
perished that fateful day. I learned there are a
few places where family members can enter quietly.
There was an air of solemnity throughout
the complex whether it was adults or school
children on a class trip. This being the traditional
"Memorial Day" or "Decoration Day", it was
a good thing to visit here today.
We are safely home and will start to think about
where our next road trip will take us.
Thanks for joining us. Hope you had a good time.
God Bless!!!
