      I was driving to the beach for a surf when it came on the radio. I thought it was some kine of Ware of the worlds prank. Called home and asked mom what was going on.....I was pretty freaked out. Surf was up, met some buddies and we were just kind of silent the whole session. Got back to my house in PB a while later and all my roommates and I were just glued to the TV all pretty much in shock......

      On a lighter note its my Sister in Laws B-day. Pretty easy to remember.

      I was home sick that day when my wife called to turn on the TV as somthing was going on in NYC, pretty much saw the whole thing unfold as it happened, I remember feeling the urge to hang my American Flag that morning and later on in the day I noticed almost every house on my block had the Flag flying, sadly today I was the only one I could see on my block that flew the Flag.

      woke up at my girlfriend's pad in downtown SD. Turned on the news and saw the second tower go down live time (I think?). Drove to my house a few blocks away to get ready for work, kept looking up at the buildings in downtown SD thinking were there still planes in the air and feeling somewhat panicky. Drove past the airport and I think by that time everybody was grounded. Glued to the TV for a few hours when i got home before I went to work.

      One of my co-workers' sister and brother in law were on the flight that I watched hit the second tower, the brother in law reportedly phoned authorities by cell from the plane. Never forget.

      it's amazing how long it's been but it still seems like yesterday.

      I work in the wedding industry and this year literally have every saturday booked from May until the end of october- except for today. Most couples aren't ready to share their anniversary with what happened in 2001.

      I wonder how much time went by before people in hawaii started having weddings on the anniversary of pearl harbor.

      I was living in Kailua-Kona, Hawaii. Ended up driving to one of the coffee plantations and wound up at the Painted Church. That seems like it was so long ago...

      9-11

      My son and I were flying back from Honduras, and he caught a nasty virus with a upset stomach, we landed around 1am in Los Angeles on the 11th, and he was due back in school. Well that didn't happen and he stayed home that morning, and we turned on the TV and we were dumbfounded as one tower had been hit and so we watched the rest unfold...

      Thank goodness we left Honduras on Sept 10th...

      I was in driving to medical school on Mare Island at the time (bay area) and a cop pulled me over for a speeding ticket on the federal property when I was speeding for my life off the abandoned submarine base, far as possible from military property. Tried to fight the ticket and judge said 911, exploding towers, planes crashing, and fear of my family while I was rushing home was not an excuse for speeding.
