I want to send out thoughts and prayers to everyone today on the five year anniversary of 9/11. It is just as sad today as it was the day it happened.

5 years ago exactly we were here in Bonaire when this vicious attack happened and after our first dive we watched the events after the 1st plane hit on the TVs at the Deco Stop. We are here again and will stop and offer our thoughts and wishes for the families and friends left behind.

As I drove to work this morning I was listening to some of the news coverage in NY and Pennsylvania. After they sang the Star Spangled Banner and the bagpipes played, they had a minute of silence. That minute of silence in busy NYC and everywhere had a greater impact than any of the commentary by the many newscasters. May we all be able to hang on to the peace of that silent minute as long as possible. I'm praying that this peace finds a home in the hearts of those who would perpetuate more such horrors.

.This is at a huge rock near a gravel pit on Hwy 25 in rural Iowa. For generations, kids have painted slogans, names, and obscenities on this rock, changing its character many times. A few months back, the rock received its latest paint job, and since then it has been left completely undisturbed. Quite an impressive sight. I thought the flag was draped over the rock, but it's not. It's actually painted on the rock too.

I watched several interviews and documentaries on 9/11 last night. All I can say is we can NEVER FORGET what happened. I won't comment on how I feel about the current situation, however, I hope our troops come home from Iraq soon, and we can focus on Bin Laden and what he and his people did. It angers me that he has not been the focus the last 5 years. They say there WILL be another attack, it's just a matter of where, and when...
