9.11.11

In October 1989, I went to New York City on a trip with my Junior CYO group. One of the places we visited was the World Trade Center. We went to the top, and looked out of the observation deck, and we went on the sky walk. I have always been terribly afraid of heights, but what I remember about being up there was that it was so surreally high that it wasn't really scary. I remember looking down through the thick glass windows at the tiny taxi cabs. I remember feeling like I was IN the sky out on the sky walk.

Ten years later, it is still so hard to comprehend that those buildings are gone.

We will never forget.
