Anna and I went to our local airport to see the "field of Honor" they put up every year on Sep. 11. It was very cool to see all those flags. I actually arrived just before they were about to begin the ceremony. Governor Tim Pawlenty was there to give a speech and they had a bunch of the local police officers and Army Reserve members there to place a flag for each fallen soldier who was from Minnesota. some friends of ours actually had a flag put up in honor of Eric. It took me a while to find it but I did eventually. I think they said there were 800 flags that people had put up either in honor or in memory or someone. It was very cool to see. I also made the mistake of wearing my army sweatshirt so the local news crew caught me and asked me if my husband is a soldier and they proceeded to interview me on camera.
