Growing up, I always heard the stories from my parents generation knowing where they were when JFK was killed. I never gave it much thought, I couldn't relate. But with 9/11, I now know what they meant. I had that week off, my brother in law (KDB67) and I were building my 2nd garage. We had the frame work done and were working on the roof. I got up that Tuesday morning, same as any other, and flipped on the Weather Channel. They said an airplane had just hit the WTC. I flipped over to Fox News to see what was going on and we watched the 2nd plane hit the 2nd tower. I don't remember much about the roof of the garage, but I remember sitting there watching the news, watching the events unfold, like it was yesterday.
Where were you, what were you doing 5 years ago today?
