From a trip to Tallahassee Florida I was able visit this memorial to 911.

BILL BRINSON WAS DEEPLY AFFECTED by the tragic events of the 9/11 terrorist attacks, saying, “I’m sad that the world is in the situation it’s in. That’s a cowardly way of doing something. I wish the world could come put all of our sources together to help one another.”  

In the years since, Brinson and a group of friends have done just that:  they’ve gathered together to design and craft a place of peace. And whales. Located in the front yard of his home, the memorial consists of four large whale sculptures (named Glory, Hope, Faith, and Grace), a few small pools of water, some smaller barely-surfacing dolphins and a large American flag.
