I, too, lack poetic skills, but have been so touched my the writing talent around me here at DCO. Jen created a section in her blog for collecting these treasures. She was afraid they'd get lost in the threads and I'm afraid I might forget where she put them - LOL! So, I'm creating a link here to her blog collection of wonderful poems. Bravo, friends!

QueenJ - thank you for sharing your memory. I remember that horrible event too as it unfolded on the tv screen, but by sharing your thoughts, you've made it all the more real for me. I have no wise words for you, because I'm just not talented that way, but I'm sending you a warm virtual virtual hug and one for your DH too. I'm certain that the tragedy that touched you both that day has helped to shape you into the person you are today.

Dear David,
I, too, was there in Williamsburg when you made this announcement. Please know that I and all the other supporters here have been sending you our love and prayers ever since. The Light is On and when you are ready, we'll be right here waiting...Laura

Great recap, you completely captured many of the same thoughts and emotions I had that night - the highs and the lows. There was definitely a "we're in this together" vibe at this concert - I was on the Neal side with 2 new DC friends and I'm so glad we were there together. Those "outside the fandom" may not get it, but there's a true community of love and support here.

I get the snarky comments from DH, but no tickets. But he also didn't object at all when I HAD to go to a college rock concert 4 hours away with my girlfriend - I'm not sure he could have handled all the squeeing I'm sure to do anyway. Thanks for recap - your hubby is a keeper!

Part of the group at the race
I'll be there along with my friend, Courtney. We're driving in from Richmond and taking Metro into the race area. I'd love to join in for lunch, but may have to play it by ear - may have to get back quickly to pick up a friend at the airport in Richmond. So looking forward to seeing everybody.
