US 169 and county road 42 in New Hope Minnesota, it was sunny and about 80 out.. I was driving a blue and wood grain 1990 Plymouth Grand Voyager and working for a courier company..
news can on the radio and I was so stunned I almost wrecked..
I have not forgotten the news of that day, the photos or anything else...
I could not tell you what I did the day before, or the day after.. but that morning.. I remember just about everything.
Heroes rise up to meet the needs and then quietly retreat when the need is filled...
Some never got to retreat..
God rest their souls...
We were in Vancouver Canada and couldn’t believe the number of Canadians honking their horns and waving at us when they say our license plates. It felt like we were among great neighbors. There were no borders for the pain.
