10/24/17...Left New York, Started heading home, Stopped at Flight 93 Memorial in PA, Stayed at Fairfield Inn, in Uniontown PA



A few of us walked the long walk out to where the plane went down.   I was the only one from our group of friends that went so I took pictures for everyone

View of the museum up on the hill...It is built on the path the plane was traveling when it crashed


The Memorial Wall with all of the names of those on the plane on them.  It also has who they were (flight attendant, etc) carved in the wall but it's the same color so it's hard to see.

Todd Beamer who said "Lets Roll"




The boulder in the field where the plane crashed

The farm on the hill that is in the picture below


 We started heading back home and stopped at the Flight 93 Memorial on the way.  We had gone there when we came back from Florida, but couldn't get in the museum because we got there after it closed.  So moving to go through it, especially listening on phones to recordings of the calls some of the passengers made.  Very emotional.  Didn't take any pictures inside because of that.  So thankful for the people on that flight doing what they did, so the plane wouldn't crash into the Capital Building which is where they are pretty sure it was headed.  We drove as far as Uniontown and spent the night at the Fairfield Inn.  We went by the pool and played cards with Wes and Gayla.  I was the winner for the night.
