I was on a motorcycle trip and left early that morning before anything had happened. So I was alone and unaware of anything besides the pleasure of touring.
Stopped for lunch at this little old BBQ place and noticed everone was huddled in front of the kitchen area where there was a TV set on. So, that's when I found out.
I was and remain very proud of my fellow citizens that day...the victims and the heroes spanned the demographics of our country. For the longest time, we were simply Americans, not Italian or Spanish-Americans or whatever but simply Americans.
Let's not forget that.
