Texas Diary: Shannon Stewart
Tuesday October 30th

Early morning in Denton Texas. I can't begin to tell you how I felt when the flag was placed in my hands. Sheer elation and pride that cannot be measured. To think, that this thing started 3 weeks ago by two guys and has caught the nation by storm. People are on a mission all over the country to find the flag. We live in an awesome country with awesome people. Our pride stands tall and wide and deep. One of the pics shows Oh Glory at daybreak. I dreamed the night before the run of seeing the flag at daybreak. It was a dream come true. Let's not let this feeling of American pride become old hat. It was a horrible thing that happened on September 11, 2001. We will never forget, and, thanks to the terrorists, we will never forget what freedom costs.

God bless America.
