Last year, Rusty and I visited Ground Zero just following the 6th anniversary of 9-11. It was impressive. There was still a reverence. We then walked away from Ground Zero, down the street, and across the Brooklyn Bridge in memorium of that Forever Fateful Day 9-11-01.

I remember I was working and one of my co-workers Dad called to tell her a plane flew into the WTC and we thought, what a weird fluke. Then when word came the second one was hit there was this weird feeling because we realized the first wasn't an accident, something was really amiss. It was weird sitting there filling peoples cavities and cleaning teeth while people were dying.
