I was in Johnstown, PA yesterday and in to this morning. I was only a few miles from Shanksville which is where one of the hi-jacked planes on 9-11-01 was brought down by the heroic actions of the passengers. If I would have known I was going to be that close I would have brought the good camera instead of using my blackberry...but hopefully you will enjoy and understand the meaning of these pictures. The last photo is not good quality but in the distance there is an American flag planted which is where the creator of the plane started...and it stretched to the tree line in the distance.
If you are by Shanksville for any reason, take the time to go and pay your respects...it was truly a humbling experience for me!
