These top two pictures are trying to show everything at the site there is just too much to show in one picture.
The chairs represent each person that died and shows which floors they worked on or were visiting.
Chloe and Jared in front of a tile wall that kids around the country sent in to help us remember the kids that died in the building also.
Chloe loves to take pictures so we let her take one of us. She did a pretty good job, huh?
The three pictures above are pictures of Lisa and kids by the "Survivor Tree". This tree is the only thing that survived the blast of the bomb and given thus given that name.
One of the rescue workers wrote this on the building and has been preserved for us to read.
This sign is across the street. I liked it for the saying at the bottom.
After our visit to the memorial we then drove up to Monkey Island for the remainder of the weekend. We had a very relaxing time away from everything. There was only ten units rented out while we were there so we even got away from people to just relax.
All we did the whole time there was play in the pool and sleep. We didn't watch TV or anything. This is not by choice but because we only had five stations to watch and there was nothing on unless you like Law & Order. Lisa loved it. I slept instead.
On our way home we stopped at the World's Largest McDonald's. I hate McDonalds and only stopped to say that we were at the largest McDonald's. It was kinda cool though. This McDonald's spanned across the freeway. The kids loved it and I guess that is what matters the most.
