"Oh, good Lord! A highwayman!" -J.L. Picard

A little departure today. It’s at a ferry dock, but I wanted to use this photo today for the obvious reasons. I took this photo just before my class got on the ferry in Jersey City. After taking the ferry across the river and went up the World Trade Center. I was always interested in the WTC towers from when I was a kid, and am glad I was able to visit them at least once. Of course, my own little experience pales in gravity to the events of ten years ago today. RIP to all the victims of that terrible tragedy. Scan from print, photo taken November 1999
