Description
I took this picture from the ferry that goes to the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island in 1999. The Dallas Symphony Chorus of which I am a member went to New York in the Spring to sing at Carnegie Hall with the Opera Orchestra of New York. Some of us hired a tour bus and went on a quick sight seeing tour which included the ferry to either the Statue or Ellis Island.
I posted these pictures on my web site in 2001 with the words:
The skyline will be different from now on. We realize this fact as we watched the unbelievable and try to comprehend the incomprehensible. But it is of course more than just a skyline that has changed.
I find comfort in a common bond among those who survive and those who help. And I am so proud of almost a unanimous spirit of outrage that says, "You did not accomplish your goal! America did not crumble in a heap and you actually made us all stronger and more resolved to remain."
This is the second of two pictures I submit to you.
