September 11 Remembrance Events - Vegas

Some very meaningful events are happening in Vegas to remember the 10th anniversary of September 11. Here's a website: https://www.911remembrancelasvegas.org/home.html

For me Las Vegas and September 11,2001 will be forever entwined.My red eye flight home from Vegas landed at 6:30,about 2 hours before the distruction started.I immediately went to bed only to wake up several hours later to the horrors of 9-11.Something I will never forget.

We arrived in vegas on the 13th of 2001. The town was a bit of ghostown. We stayed at NYNY, because of the low occupancy we did get a room upgrade. Just a really really ire feeling in town all week.
Many many wonderful people lost that should not have happened.

I'll never forget as long as i live either. Living outside DC was kinda close to home(several parents that we had met at my sons elem. school) were killed that day. My wife was in stuck in traffic went the pentagon got hit,she could see the black smoke rolling up in the sky. That whole day just seemed so surreal. A freind who was working in DC left and came to my house where we talked and witched the news while imbibing some beers. I do remember i wanted blood that day,watching those poor souls jump out of the towers and the sound of the people thudding(word?) landing on that roof was sicking.
