The photos are very moving, and I have paid careful attention to your posts, even though I didn't respond. I do appreciate having some knowledge of what's going on locally.

I'm glad to hear that positive and visible things are happening in your area. The smallest things helped me so much after 9/11; the Red Cross put children's drawing on the barricades near my building. I wish I knew the child who wrote "I wish this didn't happen." He or she pretty much summed it up.
