View from my beach on September 10th |
One man's never ending search for beauty and adventure, be it the Great Wall of China, a Broadway musical or fried peanut butter and jelly sandwiches.

Ghost Towers
I went out to my beach a few nights ago and was treated to a spectacular view of New York City. I think it's great that something so sad can be remembered with such quiet beauty. I don't have much wisdom to offer about September 11th other than don't generalize, don't take the easy way out, and forgive others if you truly want to move forward. This advice applies to most of life, but sometimes we can forget it during times of great fear or anger.
