A week from today was the 5th Anniversary of 9/11. Last Thursday morning, the day the huge flag blew off the Woodman Tower, I took over 45 photos of this flag from various locations in and along the Gene Leahy Mall and the Heartland of American Park. This includes several water and Union Pacific Center Reflection pictures.






























Nearly 50 of my Woodman’s 9-11 5th Anniversary Flag photos are online:

It would have been even cooler if they could have centered the flag...
