Remembering 9/11
In all the excitement I hadn't yet written my post on 9/11. I hadn't forgotten the anniversary because it would be impossible to do so given the mood of those around me.
I still remember the day so clearly and where I was when I found out it had happened. What an awful sickly day that was, and to imagine the loss of all those actually there. Well, it's impossible to do so.
I also remember coming home from work to talk about it with Fragglehump as we were living together at the time. That was four years ago now and to think that the States are still going through hell in other areas, this time due to a natural disaster.
Cleanup Continue in New Orleans
NEW ORLEANS - Firefighters paused Sunday in their recovery work for Hurricane Katrina to observe the fourth anniversary of the Sept. 11 attack that killed their brethren in New York.
On the lawn of Our Lady of Holy Cross College in the city's Algiers section, firefighters from New Orleans, New York and other cities gathered around a makeshift memorial that said: "Never Forget. 343. FD 9-11 NY."
On Sept. 11, 343 New York firefighters were killed in the attacks that destroyed the twin towers of the World Trade Center

I remember that day too...exactly where I was and what I was doing when I heard the news.
Amazing how it has burned a place in our memory like that, isn't it?
Sad. Very, very sad.
