2010 Olympics HNT

The Olympic Flame or Olympic Torch is a symbol of the Olympic Games. Commemorating the theft of fire from the Greek god Zeus by Prometheus, its origins lie in ancient Greece, where a fire was kept burning throughout the celebration of the ancient Olympics.

During the torch's trek though the USA, Lori and I had the pleasure of hosting the torch bearer for one night.



Happy 2010 Olympics HNT
