Coming this Week: Sept. 11 in Acton — 10 Years After

Starting Tuesday, Patch explores how our lives in Acton have changed in the decade since 9/11/01.

Most of us remember exactly where we were that startlingly beautiful September morning 10 years ago. 

What is not as clear: how have we changed in the intervening 10 years? Who changed the course of his or her life because of the attacks that morning on New York's World Trade Center and the Pentagon, and because of the plane that crashed in a Pennsylvania field? 

How have we changed as a community?

Starting Tuesday, each day until Sunday, 9/11/11, Acton Patch will have a story or stories examining the impact of 9/11 on us, here.

In the meantime, we want to share this gallery of photos from Acton and surrounding towns; each picture attempts to capture the meaning, the essence, of 9/11.

And, as always, we want to hear your thoughts, ideas, and memories. Starting with: where were you that morning? Tell us in the comments section, below.
