"Remember The Sky" Project on 9/11

With the approach of the 24th anniversary of the vile September 11 terrorist attacks on our country, here's a reminder to participate in the 9/11 Memorial & Museum's "Remember the Sky" project. I still remember the particularly beautiful blue color of the sky that morning, which, when I've seen it since then, I have referred to as "a September 11 sky".

Here's how you can participate, too:

From the website: 

"Each year as we commemorate the anniversary of the day that changed our world forever, we ask you to join us as we Remember the Sky. Simply post a photo of the sky wherever in the world you are on September 11 — regardless of the weather. Then, share it on Instagram or the social media platform of your choice with a caption, tag us, and include the hashtags #neverforget911 and #rememberthesky. 

"This digital commemoration is inspired by the clear blue sky that was present in New York City and across the country on 9/11, as well as by Spencer Finch’s monumental art installation in the 9/11 Memorial Museum. His artwork, “Trying to Remember the Color of the Sky on That September Morning,” is comprised of 2,983 watercolors — each a unique shade of blue — a tribute to the enormity of collective loss and the individuality of each of those who were taken from us far too soon."
