We had just moved cross country. We were supposed to close on our house on the 11th, but had gotten a call that the papers were ready on the 10th, so we were unloading a uhaul. We had left the motel room right after the first plane hit. We had the tv on - weren't really watching it, we just heard about a plane crash and assumed it was a small plane.
One of the neighbors (a Mennonite - they only have radios, no tvs) stopped over to see if we needed any help, he said something to the effect of "that sure was something about the planes crashing" we just said "yeah" not yet understanding what all had really happened. We didn't realize what had happened until we went to pickup our daughter at school and had the radio on in the truck! We went back to the motel and watched TV the rest of the night rather than unpacking.
