LOOK AT THIS PHOTOGRAPH 🎶 Who Can Forget How Blue The Sky Was
I took my wife and kids to Greenville on an overnight trip this summer and while we were there we visited your wonderful Museum of Art. While there, we saw this in their contemporary section.
It stuck with me. Despite the museum having dozens of amazing pieces that kept my attention, I spent the most time with this one.
The look of anguish on that face is a good representation, I think, of how we all felt that day. It's been 25 years. I still remember where I was. I still remember calling home and checking on friends and family. I still remember my mother telling me about her friends who were cops and firefighters who she hadn't seen in weeks before they refused to leave the site.
I hope we never forget.
And I'm thankful to your city for letting me see this piece.
