Due to "lack of room", NYC Police Officers, Port Authority Police Officers and FDNY Firefighters are not "invited" to the 10th anniversary of 9/11 at Ground Zero. Funny - they weren't invited on that day in 2001, either - they just "showed up" and became our heroes. Please re-post if you think they belong MORE than the politicians who are invited
It's true that they are not invited but the whole truth is that's because there is limited room and the victim's families have to be accomodated before anyone else.

ReplyDeleteNice photos -- from where?
ReplyDeleteSouth East Street, near the bike path.
ReplyDeleteBlue herons habitually return to the same spots, so it makes sense to look for it at the same spot.

ReplyDeleteLar, I encountered a heron on Lake Michigan, recently.

(My photo is not as dramatic as yours, though.)
