Remembering September 11th!

10 years ago today I had just returned from a great week on Nantucket on United Flight 173 from Boston's Logan Airport direct to San Francisco. My flight was delayed about 4 hours due to weather over the Midwest and there was even talk of cancelling it so I walked down to United Flight 175 Boston to LA too see if there were seats available and there were. I had so many Southwest vouchers the flight from LA to SF would have been easy and I would only be a little late for work. I was sooooo lucky flight 173 took off that night however late it was. I remember listening to the pilot on the cockpit station on the plane's radio for hour or so from take off until we got to the Midwest. We had to fly way up over Canada to avoid the storm. I did not arrive in SF until after 4am, 7am Est. My brother called me frantically just after 6am pst / 9 am est. My parents did not know which flight I was on. He says to turn on the tv. As I do, I watch flight 175 fly into the second tower LIVE just a few minutes after 6am pst. I was very lucky, so many were not. I definitely will NEVER forget!
