That Tuesday morning


I took this picture from Ellis Island in August of 1992. It was a Friday and my family,
parents, brother and sister, and their kids, were having a great time exploring .
In the foreground, you see the bronze plates that have the names of the families that first passed through Ellis Island to start their lives in America.
Fast forward to Tuesday, September 11, 2001, and the Twin Towers became something else besides a backdrop in movies such as Moonstruck, or in my photo.
