DC to OKC on Sept. 11th…

As I left the Hill early this morning for home, I kept thinking about 7 years ago and the fact we have been out of harm's way since 2001. I was told last night that the DC area was dedicating the Pentagon Memorial in remembrance of Sept. 11th and roads would be closed, making it difficult to get out of the district.  So I left hotel at 6:45 and got to airport at 7 for my 10 am flight back home to OKC.  My trip from hotel to airport was uneventful because the leadership in this country has kept us safe. I could see the memorial dedication services set to begin in the distance as I traveled across the Potomac River. God Bless America!
