Memorial at Moab

On April 18 Bryan, Julie and Nathan
traveled to the crash site near the
Moab Airport. (We could see the airport
from the crash site.)
I (Julie) was very nervous about going to see the site.
However, it was an neat experience.
I'm glad I had the chance to be there for the Memorial.
Some high school kids from Cedar put it all together.
They did a fantastic job. They had to get special permission
from the BLM to have the marker placed there. It's one of
two that the BLM has ever allowed.

I think this is where the plane first hit the ground.

It's hard to see in the picture but this is the large
burned strip where the plane slid across the top of the hill.



Then it slid down this slop.
It stopped at the bottom of this hill,
where they placed the large rock
with the plaque on it.

It was well worth the long drive to be there, wasn't it? Thanks for the "hug"- it really meant/means a lot to me! =)
