While watching some 911 shows tonight, I was reminded of an eerie memory.
Late that afternoon, I was walking around our small town of Lowden, delivering some flyers door-to-door for an upcoming school election.
It was so clear that afternoon in Iowa, with a cloudless blue sky. I looked up to the south and saw some plane contrails in the sky.
Later that night I was watching news coverage and was reminded that all air flights were grounded that day. I also learned that President Bush had spent the afternoon securely at Offut Air Base in Omaha, and left around 4:30 for his flight back to Washington.
It was then that I remembered the contrails I saw. With no other planes in the sky, the plane I saw had to be Air Force One.
