I remember on 9/11 leaving my wifes’s house (we were just dating at the time) and looking towards downtown about 11pm on 9/11and for the first time in my life seeing the whole of the Midland skyline shrouded in darkness. That’s when the reality and the gravity of the situation we were facing that day really began to set in with me. I didn’t sleep a wink that night...I just kept replaying what had transpired that day over and over in my head.
