There are no words. I found out about the tragedy when I logged onto my GWCA August DTC group, to see whether there was any news about travel plans from my travelmates. Someone had posted that a plane had flown into the World Trade Center. I turned on the TV just in time to see the second plane hit the second tower.

The picture that is indelibly printed on my brain is the sight of the firefighters and rescue workers running toward the buildings, as everyone else was running away from the buildings. And then the towers fell.

I have to admit, in the midst of the horror, my thoughts turned selfish -- how will this affect my trip to Zoe? I don't know the answer yet. I don't seem to have any answers to anything today. Especially for that burning question, "Why?"
