Louisiana Diary: Dottie McWhiney

Wednesday October 31, 2001
Oil City, Louisiana THANK YOU to the organizers, to the sponsors, and to the coordinators!!! I simply cannot put into words the overwhelming feelings of Patriotism I felt while running over the Texas Street Bridge and down Texas Street in Shreveport, Louisiana that Friday morning, the 26th of October with that HUGE crowd of fellow patriots and my two sons, Justin, age 17, Dylan, age 10 and their friends Kyle, 10, Chris, 17 and Steph, 15. In three words, I would describe the experience as......

AMAZING, EMOTIONAL AND INSPIRATIONAL!!! Because of YOUR efforts, you gave us average Americans an unbelievable opportunity to show our support for this country, to unite in a way that was unique as well as historical, and to literally GO THE EXTRA MILE for unity!!! And for this gift, I will be forever grateful. Again, THANK YOU ALL.
