A Day Remembered.. by Norwood

hi every bloggie!

Yesterday we did a few things in remembrance of 9.11.
Okay here's me and momma right after we finished
running 9.11 miles. Yup. I did it too in honor
of all the dog heroes. That's the furtherest I've ever run .

Finished our 9.11 dedication run

We planned out our run pawfectly. At the half way point
we stopped to participate in a ceremony at the Hudson Fire Dept.
That's me checking out the cool trucks.

Hudson Fire Dept

The Hudson Fire Dept waited two years to obtain a steel girder
from the World Trade Center. Today they unveiled the new memorial.

It was a truly honorable ceremony.
Momma had to remove my bear bell b/c I was making too much noise.
I didn't mean too.

Camera Roll-90

Here it is. The new memorial.
Can you believe that piece came from the WTC?
I'll be silent while you view it.

I don't know if you can tell in the black and white,
so I put it in color. Amazing how the sun sent its sun rays right on it.

Here's the local newspaper's article and a photo gallery of the event.
I'm glad I went and also ran to honor our canine heroes.

Never Forget 9.11.01

Today we remember.....

On this day ten years ago, I was working from home in Columbus, Ohio and had the TV on in the background. I saw the breaking news and stood there astonished. I called my co-worker who had lived in NYC to inform her. As I was talking to her the 2nd plane hit. I thought perhaps the 1st plane was an accident just like many others. I stood there in absolute disbelief. The images and news still have same impact on me today.

This past Friday, at work we honored and remembered four employees who lost their lives that day. I didn't work for the company in 2001 but many employees did and remember it vividly. There was a recent article about one of the employees, 9/11 victim Peter A. Gay honored with bench in Onset. I thought I share it.

In my town of Marlboro, the town hall posted 3000 flags in honor.
Here's a view of this wonderful tribute.

hi every bloggie!

Every August there is a hot air balloon festival
right in the field where I take my regular walkies.
Except this year.... lookies
stoopid new rules.

but that didn't stop me from watching.
It's too cool!
So I got there at 5:30am to watch lift off.
see?

That's Tula and Fun Aunt Dee .
Toolie wasn't happy about all the folks
out so early during our regular walkies time.

She told FAD that! Grrr!


While we were walkies,
you could still see them in the distance.


Momma kept stopping to take photos
Ummm.. this is boring me. Let's go.

La la la laaaaaahh

Okay here's a short video of the hot air ballooon lift off.



and I'll leave you with my fav foto of the day.
I think they should have a balloon

hi every bloggie!

Since this weekend is the last dayz of summer
I have to hurry up and finish posting my funtimes
from the last couple weeks.

Ready? That's me!
I'm on the Falmouth Shining Sea Trail for a 5 mile run.
Momma was running in the Falmouth road race
and had me train her for it.
august 2011-145
You know what's funny?
The Shining Sea trail was named after the song
"America the Beautiful" written Falmouth born Katharine Lee Bates.
My Fun Aunt Dee works at Bates Elementary- named after her too.
She wasn't happy b/c it reminded her back to skool is near.


Well first off woo have to stretch!
or scratch your name in the sand.
Look out behind! Sand storm!
