I’m assuming this was in Midland, Texas and not West, Texas.
West, Texas -near Dallas- was the site of a large fertilizer plant explosion.
I was many miles away (near Glenrose), spending the evening with friends. I heard the explosion, marked the time, and began watching social media, including DFW Scanner’s facebook page. I knew this was something big. Within a few minutes the reports started coming in. Sobering day.
I went to Waco outside Baylor to try to distract the crazies from Kansas that were planning to protest the funeral, but the cowards never showed up.
Midland IS West Texas. Dallas Is North Central Texas.
