Default Where were you when...

On the 8th anniversary of 9/11... I would like to take a moment to think about what had happened and the impact on the world.

On the radio this morning, the morning guy asked the question... where were you when it happened? For me, I won't forget... I was working at Kimberly-Clark (makers of Kleenex and Huggies) and was 800 miles from home in a plant outside of Augusta, GA. I remember sitting in just outside of the classroom getting annoyed that one of the mill folks was interrupting our training session... she finally told us what was happening. With the airports shut down, we weren't able to get home for a number of days after it happened. Many in our group decided to drive back in the rental cars... Jill and I stayed back because we still had to train the following week... it was a very long weekend and very nerve-wracking... a time that I will never forget.
