Specific picture descriptions: Photos above with "i" icons next to the bracketed sequence numbers (e.g. "[1] ") are described as follows:
1. F93_020907_01.JPG: In 2002, ten months after the 9/11 attacks, the area near Shanksville, Pennsylvania by the site of the crashed Flight 93 was a make-shift memorial. The crash site itself stayed an active crash investigation site and the new National Park Service memorial opened in 2015. The exact area of the crash is still closed off to the public although rangers will take family members out to it.
2. F93_020907_26.JPG: If you look far in the distance, you can see a flag indicating where the plane crashed.

Wikipedia Description: Flight 93 National Memorial
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Flight 93 National Memorial protects the site of the crash of United Airlines Flight 93, which was hijacked in the September 11, 2001 attacks, in Stonycreek Township, Pennsylvania, about 2 miles north of Shanksville, Pennsylvania and 60 miles southeast of Pittsburgh. A temporary memorial to the 40 victims was established soon after the crash, with a permanent memorial slated to be constructed and completed by 2011. The current design for the memorial is a modified version of the entry Crescent of Embrace by Paul and Milena Murdoch.

The jetliner crashed west of Skyline Road, about 2.5 miles south of U.S. Route 30 (Lincoln Highway), 1.5 miles west of Indian Lake, and about 2 miles north of Shanksville.

Temporary memorial"

The site of the crash is closed to the public except for victims' family members. The temporary memorial is located on a hilltop 500 yards from the crash site. It consists of a 40-foot (to commemorate the 40 passengers) chain-link fence on which visitors can leave flags, hats, rosaries, and other items. Next to the fence are several memorials such as a bronze plaque of names, flags, and a large cross. There is also a guardrail on which visitors may leave messages. There is a small building with a guestbook. The building is staffed by Park Service volunteers, called ambassadors, who answer questions.

Permanent memorial:

Of the four aircraft hijacked on September 11, Flight 93 is the only one that did not reach its intended target, presumed to be the United States Capitol in Washington, D.C.. The passengers had learned about the attacks on the World Trade Center through cellular telephone calls to family. It is believed that at least flight attendants Cee Cee Lyles and Sandra Bradshaw and passengers Todd Beamer, Mark Bingham, Tom Burnett, Andrew Garcia, Jeremy Glick, and Richard Guadagno (and perhaps others) fought the hijackers. The plane crashed into the Pennsylvania ...More...

2002 photos: This was the year I started the photo web site. It started to come together in August 2002, mostly as a way of allowing me to keep track of the pictures I was taking. It took awhile to add some basic bells and whistles (logging didn't get added until November) but it's been pretty much like it started out since then. Archaic but working, and free! Trips this year: Two weeks out west, one week in New York, and one week down south. Image quality isn't going to be very good for the first half of this year because these are scans of prints. Equipment this year: I took the plunge and bought my first digital camera. It was August 2002 and I bought an Epson PhotoPC 3100Z. While a nice camera, it had some quirks and bumping it would result in it being totally out of focus until you manually shut it down -- something which blurred almost every picture I took in New York City one day.
