Tribute

After ten years I finally have a desire to visit the World Trade Center site.  Here are pictures of what the area around Ground Zero looks like today.    On this day ten years ago, from far away you could see the wind swirling the ash high into the sky.  I have always felt that ash carried the Spirits that are now in the air we breathe.

From Jersey City looking over the Hudson River to Ground Zero:

The birds fly on the wind where we breathe our Spirits.  The Jersey City peregrine falcons, 55 Water Street peregrine falcons and Riverside Church falcons are thriving in the air around the World Trade Center Memorial.

And a few names from the Jersey City Memorial:
