911DA Story: Story

My husband and I left at 6am to go to our Canadian dentist. Our trip up was uneventful. On the way back the Border Patrol was very intense and intrusive- a 180 degree turnaround. We blew it off as a "newbe" officer. We enjoy each others company so talked all the way back to Schroon Lake where we stopped for breakfast, about 10am. It was like walking into "The Twilight Zone". Everyone was in shock. My husband, a Vietnam vet, was in tears of disbelief. I haven't yet been able to have a good cry. It is just too overwhelming. I will remember this day for the rest of my life. We will never forget.
