Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: I woke around 9:30 in the morning to the sounds of plane after plane flying in to land in an airport located a few miles from my home. I thought this was really strange since it was such a small airport that only had a few arrivals and departures in a 24 hour period, yet I heard 6 or 7 in 10 minutes. so I woke up and opened my front door, and at first I thought to myself this is the most beautiful day I ever remember, the sky was an imaculate blue, and the breeze of the ocean swept through the streets, then almost as quickly as that feeling came I felt the second, the streets we're lined with people talking, some crying, and the soudns of news played on my neighbor's tv set's. I knew something was wrong, but what? Me not being a real television fanatic I had no cable so I had no clue, then the telephone rang, it was my wife, she said something terrible had just happened in new york city. I thought, how could this be affecting a beach city 500 miles away? then she started to shade in the story, and my heart fell to the floor. It's a day I'll never forget, as I sit here 2 years later to the very day the erie feelings remain, and odd enough the sky is that same beautiful blue...
