To the office by 8. Watt called at 8:30 with news of the crashing. Jenny and I turned the radio on and listened to the eye witness reports as the devastation unfolded. All morning we sat and listened. About lunch time Watt came to take me home. Spent the afternoon watching it on tv with him. The boys came home from school with instructions not to watch, but I thought it was important that they share in the witness. We watched a little, between homework and dinner. Before bed we played cards. The horror is beyond imagining.
