RussLeona Trip 10/25/12 Flight 93

We left Washington, D.C. late about noon.  Pennsylvania is very beautiful.  We drove over the Allegheny Mountains.  We noticed that we were passing within 30 miles of the Flight 93 crash site.  We drove over to it and was really glad we did. It was sad but very interesting.  They have built a nice Memorial with the names of everyone lost.  They have plans for a visitor center.
We are heading on to Decatur, Indiana to the American Factory to see if we can get our windshield replaced.

The Flight 93 Memorial as you walk up to it.  The plane came over the hill to the right and hit close to the Memorial.

The marble wall with the names of those lost.  After seeing the Capital, it was so special they were brave enough to save it.
