Oklahoma City Memorial
Last night, a small group of us from the RTNDF seminar walked over to the Oklahoma City National Memorial. It's at the site of the Murrah Federal Building, which was bombed by Timothy McVeigh on April 19, 1995, killing 168 people.
The Memorial is very moving. The fact that we went at night - with the Memorial's almost haunting lighting - made the visit even more emotional.
Thank you to Sean Saied of News 9 here in Oklahoma City for his informative tour of the Memorial site.
I was going to write an account of our group's walk through OKC's very vibrant Bricktown area - with it's restaurants, riverwalk and baseball stadium - but, with the exception of this Bricktown link, I think I'll leave this post soley to the Memorial.
Home later today.
