What a sad day here in Buffalo!

I'm sure that everyone has heard, but at 10:20 pm yesterday February 12, 2008, a Continental Airlines plane flight #3407 coming from Newark and just about to touch down in Buffalo crashed in Clarence, NY. What is very scary to me is that we live just about 5 minutes from the plane crash site, as well as so many of our friends living even closer. It is so hard to imagine that something so horrible can take place so close to home. I feeling so lucky because nobody we knew was on that flight, but some friends of ours had some close calls with family and friends' flights being late causing them to miss that flight. Buffalo is a very tight knit community, and I have a feeling that this tragic event will be felt by the community for quite some time. My heart goes out to all of the families and friends who have lost loved ones.
