@patutet This is a picture I took with my husband in it viewing the heroes of 9/11 at the Empty Sky September 11 Memorial. I want to go to New York because I want to visit my husband who is there for 11 years now. Spring time will be a perfect time for us to make memories and be together again. I am happier now that PAL will finally be flying there starting March 15. Suzette Mercado-Capili
