911DA Story: Story
I had watched for hours the horror of the 9-11 attack on our
country and our people. Never in my lifetime did I think
such an attack on our own soil would ever occur. I couldn't
watch any more. I needed to do something. I took red, white and blue ribbon and tied bows with streamers on 10 of
the 20 trees lining our driveway and placed two American
flags at the gated entrance to our property. As I watched
our country's colors wave in the wind, I knew in my heart
that no subhuman terrorists could ever wipe out the love and
support I have for my country nor the high regard I have for
my fellow citizens. I asked God to bless our America and
all Americans.
