Got back from Baltimore on the train late last night. On the way home from the station I was reminded of the date by two shining columns of light projecting from ground zero.

I never did see the actual towers themselves. My first visit to the US came shortly after September 11, 2001. But this image certainly serves to show of how they must have dominated the skyline.

Once I made it home, I decided to go down to Brooklyn Heights to look more closely. A large number of poeple had the same idea. It was a strong reminder to cherish what we have since we don't know what lies a head. A humbling experience.
