This is Taylor and Deborah and we are coming to you from Dallas, Texas currently standing in front of the John F. Kennedy Memorial Plaza. I wanted to share some words that were written and on a plaque here. The John F. Kennedy Memorial consists of a roofless room measuring 30ft tall and 50ft square composes 72 white precast concrete columns. The memorial's walls are supported by eight pillars that appear to float above the ground

This memorial, designed by Philip Johnson, was erected by the people of Dallas. Thousands of citizens contributed support, money and effort. It is not a memorial to the pain and sorrow of death, but stands as a permanent tribute to the joy and excitement of one man's life. John Fitzgerald Kennedy's. Bye

As the parade continued on Elm Street at 12:30 p.m., rifle shops wounded the President and Texas Governor John Connolly findings of the Warren Commission indicated that the rifle shot fired from a 6th floor window near the southeast corner of the Texas School Book Depository building, elm and Houston, a block north of the marker. President Kennedy expired at Parkland Memorial Hospital at 01:00 PM. The John Fitzgerald Kennedy Memorial Plaza is nearby, bounded by main Record, market and commerce streets

Well, I've always liked history, and this is one of the weirder things to happen in US. History. There's so much speculation about what happened, what didn't happen, the people that were involved, the people that weren't involved. It's just interesting to know that, literally, we're like, what, 10ft away from an actual X, where it marks the spot on the road where it happened. It's so weird. I'm getting goosebumps talking about it

Hey, guys. Thank you guys for visiting. I know it's like the only thing that Dallas is really famous for is, you know, being the place where JFK got shot. And I guess having grown up here, I kind of take it for granted a little bit because we would always go every year well, not every year, but pretty much at least once every few years we would go to the 6th Floor Museum and go down to Deep Plaza, et cetera, et cetera

The second is as you stand on that axe where he was shot, and you look up cat that six floor window, for me, it was a realization that, wow, that is a heck of a shot. That is a long way away. And until you're actually there, you don't realize how long of a shot it was. And it was at that time where I thought, you know what?
