Oklahoma City

The memorial was only a few blocks from our hotel. We didn't have time to go to the museum but the memorial said it all. Very powerful. I don't know if I would have been able to hold my composure at the museum with all of the photos of the children at the day care who were killed in the bombing.




The fixture on one end said 9:01 and the fixture on the other end said 9:03. The bomb went off at 9:02. They put the numbers up to signify that your entire world can change in one minute.






There are 168 chairs. Each one is engraved with a victim's name. The small chairs represent the 19 children that died.
