This past weekend I went into New York City for an event as a member of the ShopRite blogger panel. I stopped at Ground Zero, where I hadn’t been in many years, since long before 9/11. They’re building there but the site is still very sobering.




For some reason, I found the scene at night particularly haunting.

Thanks for stopping by! If you have a picture up for Wordless Wednesday, leave your link below on Mr. Linky! Then head on over to From Val’s Kitchen, Here And There, What’s That Smell, Go Graham Go, 5 Minutes for Mom and The Not-So-Blog Blog for more wordless fun!

I'm really glad that they are rebuilding there. 9-11 will never be forgotten.

Yes, it's still a very sobering place. We lived down there after 9/11 about 2 blocks away and even though I walked past there all the time, the effect never went away. We lived about 2 miles uptown when the towers were hit.

Thank you for sharing these photos Val. I've been to NYC twice since 9/11 and wasn't able to get to the site either time. I did drive past it and said a prayer, but to see it and the progress they've made is so different.

Thanks for sharing...seeing it on the news is not the same.

That is really haunting, isn't it? I'm glad to see the rebuilding continuing, though. What a sad, scary day that was.
