One step-brother fighting his way across the Hudson to get the story for his column in the Times and the other walking to his office in the south tower. I was in Houston first day of launching a new product line at a trade show. Flipped to CNN and saw replay of first plane. NO WAY that was an accident. Then watched the second hit. Mom called frantic not able to contact either brother. Very very long day.
Both OK. Dex has been a war correspondent in Iraq and Afghanistan ever since and Rick quit his law practice and returned home to Florida. Seems like yesterday. Absolutely not forgotten.
there is no call to forget any day
be it a first day
or a last day, or any day in between.
Days are numbered for each of us.
Make the most of every day.
You won't be caught short.
Flags on the 48 today, what a thrill to be at work and count 5 Flags in sight at one time with binocs: Adams, Madison, Wildcat D, Carter, and Washington.
The weather was perfect for viewing, but the winds aloft may have been trouble for those putting up a flagpole.
Right and I were at a friend's family lobster bake Saturday afternoon and we stopped for a moment of silence and sang Lee Greenwood's Proud to be an American. We won't forget.
