Where were you?

I left the house around 8:00am to get the materials for a Fire Safety class that I was scheduled to teach at the Southeast State Correctional Facility. When I arrived at the facility, the officer at the gate asked "Did you hear?" I looked at him and said "Hear what?" His reply was one that I will never forget: "A plane just crashed into the World Trade Center!"

The rest of the day went by in a blurr. Between trying to teach a class and watching the news, I don't remember much more. The only thing that I remember is getting home, hugging my wife and holding on to my daughters and not wanting to let them go.

Where were you?
