I had taken the morning off to take my German Shepard pup to Ojai to get her spayed. I heard about the first plane on the radio and like others thought it was a terrible accident.
The television in the Vet's lobby was tuned to the news when the second plane hit, heard about the Pentagon on the drive home. Called my boss and everyone had been sent home so I spent the time at home watching it all unfold.
With everything going on now, Covid, election year, 911 tributes cut short or canceled, I was wondering what Google would do for 9/11.
They always have some animated doodle to commemorate the 106th Birthday of the person who invented the board game "Scrabble" or somesuch thing. I thought maybe a tribute to the first responders who perished on that day.
But nothing but a teeny flag with a black ribbon. We truly are living in different times today.
