As most of my friends know, I live in Virginia Beach. It is my home. We are known for our tourism and great "down to earth" people. And this is really true until a little more than 24 hours ago all our lives changed, many with broken hearts of sadness forever.

In the words of our Mayor...."This is the worst day in Virginia Beach history". I don't even know how to respond to that because my heart hurts and the tears won't stop and I can't stop trembling. You see, I live in a subdivision only 5 minutes from the municipal center.... I have family who works in building 2 where this now nationally known tragedy happened. My family was among the blessed to make it out alive. I hesitate to say "okay" because no one in that building will ever be the same again.

I sat here tonight and watched the national news tell the story of this tragedy which happened here and heard so may "facts" stated that were not true or that haven't been released to local news stations here.

So if you are interested and concerned about the way things actually happened in VB, I want to leave you a link to the local news stations here where I am.
