As we washed the rigs at the station this morning, we did so in silence. The silence was only broken by the sound of the water spraying on the rigs and the brushes moving over the metal removing the dirt from the previous day's calls. This moment of silence wasn’t planned but just happened as we prepared the rigs for the day. As I washed the rig my thoughts went to fire fighters and first responders who 10 years ago this morning were doing the same thing, preparing their rigs for the day. As they washed their rigs I don’t think any of these brave individuals could imagine the events that would unfold on that day.
This was my personal reflection on the events of 9/11 and to all of the individuals who were killed that day. Silently preparing, remembering and honoring.
