Sadly, No Johnsburg "Circle of Flags" Ceremony This Year

I drove to the Johnsburg, Illinois, Library at 9 and didn't see anything.  I even tried the veterans' memorial by the Community Club, but nothing was there either.  I guess they are not having it this year.  Too bad.

My wife Liz showed me items on Facebook.  One video to the music of the Eagles' "New York Minute" by a school teacher for his students was particularly impressive. When you listen to the lyrics of the song, they really hit home.  About everything changing in a minute, which it sure did back on 9-11-01.

I also saw the Alan Jackson video "Where Were You" which always gets me.  If any one song sums those sad events up for me, it's that one.
