    Great pictures. I got to see the towers once when I delivered a load to Jamaica, Queens back in the 90's. Never made it back to visit.

    I went to the top of the towers only twice, unfortunately. It was one of those things where it's always around you so you don't take advantage of it. I still have to get my ass to the Statue of Liberty, one day. As a kid I remember watching the towers going up, quite a sight.

    It is strange how many things are in your backyard growing up that are either historical or just plain interesting yet we never see them. When I first moved here 20 yrs ago I would go see things or ask a local about and always get the same response "Never been there". since then we continue to find things to do or see right here most of them are very historical either local or national and still haven't seen all of it.

    Amen to that and if it wasn't for my son it would have only been once, and that was for dinner at Windows of the World, in the North Tower on the 107th floor, very expensive. Being retired makes a difference, when you're raising a family there are too many things going on that when you have spare time, you rest. Plus the kids today wouldn't be able to see the view since their heads would down texting on their phone. BTW Great screen name
