A daily record of gratitude; from quilting to photography to a mix of technology, books, movies and the musings of life!

Welcome to my Blog of my daily gratitude and photo of the day!

Since January 1, 2012, my goal is to write a daily sentence or two (or paragraph or two) about gratitude of the day and to include one photo (at least) that I took that day (but will add others from time to time). It has definitely been a challenge most days throughout the past eight years, and welcomed the challenge again this year - 2020 - Covid and all. I hope you will continue the ride with me!

Twenty Years Ago - 9/11/01

Our world has certainly changed from that horrible day in NYC and the Pentagon. We became Patriots to our country and forged ahead with renewed hope. There were no social media platforms, no iPhones and Google was just entering the arena of search engines. No Netflix either...

May we Never Forget that day. I heard from a New York friend that it is still too soon to really talk about that day to other New Yorkers. Still fresh in everyone's mind is what he said to me.

I took the below photo in the fall of 2019, when our world was doing quite well, at least from a health standpoint. It's on the building of the local fire department on the corner from where the twin towers stood. A restaurant is next door that still stands today.
