Color Me Nostalgic

I frequently check the SondraK site.

Today I noticed a new banner graphic that you can see below.




















Instantly I noticed what is missing, both in the graphic and, more poignantly, in New York. God, how I miss the Twin Towers.

For a moment it was September 11, 2001 again. I was homeless, having left my job in Michigan and was moving to Alaska. I did have a job in Alaska waiting for me, but the borders were closed. Who knew when they were going to open up. Ah, it's just a silly little graphic, isn't it?

My wife and I ended up driving West and holed up in Montana till the borders opened up. Strange times they were. Is it any different today?
