On September 11, this day of remembrance and everyday for that matter, look into the vast expanses of the United States and explore our borders, people and learn of our true history. We have every religion on earth within our borders, along with every nationality and best of all, just about every form of environment. From those tall peaks of Denali in Alaska to those beautiful marshes on the eastern shore of Maryland and Virginia, to the amazing Florida Keys, the United States will always be a place of opportunity, due to our diversity. Reflect on what makes this country great as a whole and reach out to those you care for. Most of all, seize the opportunity to experience true freedom. That particular notion, in our thoughts, is when you hit the open road and simply see where it takes you. Never know who ya might meet at the next gas stop or what new stories are to be made. Our greatest freedom is that we can choose our own path. don't ever take this for granted or let it be taken away.
"You must live in the present, launch yourself on every wave, find your eternity in each moment. Fools stand on their island opportunities and look toward another land. There is no other land, there is no other life but this.”
- Henry David Thoreau

For all the victims of the September 11, 2001 attacks, you are in our thoughts.
