September 11, 2025

                Good morning to only you who have read or will read this message.

                Today is September the 11th also known as 911 when terrorist decided to fly planes into the trade centers in New York City. I was not in New York City at that time, but I was in the state of New York working. There are a lot of thoughts about that day.

                I am changing the subject to yesterday's events: I was able to get Alex to school safe and sound. I purchased a cup of coffee from the Star Coffee place which tasted bitter. The last two cups of coffee I purchased from there were both bitter and not good. I do plan to stop by there today and purchase another cup. I also plan to tell them, "If it's bitter I will not be back".

                Returning home from dropping Alex off at school, I decided to work on the ditch. I decided that I would see how much I could get done before it got too hot. I did use 1 1/2 tanks of gas before I quit. I have a photo of the weeds that have been cut.

I may go out and attempt to finish cutting the rest of it today, there's a bunch of grooves in the dirt which makes it difficult for an old person to walk. These grooves were put there by city employees on 4-wheel vehicles when the ground was wet, they got stuck in the mud.

                Later in the day after getting a shower and resting up, decided I would try to spread fire Ant killer on the front yard. I did accomplish that although with my ankle that hurts when I walk, I have decided that I will allow my grandson to spread the fire Ant killer in the backyard. My favorite wife and I did sit outside yesterday afternoon it was nice we didn't even need the big fan.

                Today's exciting events: as I said earlier, I may go out in the back and weed eat in a ditch, I will attempt to get Alex to school safe and sound. I do have some other small jobs that I need to do, if I keep them in mind, I might get them done.

I guess I will stop for now. We hope you have a real good day and be safe in everything you do.

May today be better than your best day, but not as good as tomorrow.
