June 5, 2026

We are starting the day out as a good morning and we hope to get the right amount of rain today. Our morning coffee was made here at the Ford Homestead.

                Allow Me to comment on yesterday's events: we left the house yesterday morning about 8:30 heading over to get Alex to take him down to the tax office. I stopped at the star coffee place and wasted money on a cup of coffee prior to picking Alex up. We did make it to the tax office safely although the handicapped parking place had mud and grass where the handicapped person. “My favorite wife,” had to get out of the car. I did explain to the lady inside that the handicapped parking places should be cleaned out, and she noted that there's a lot of work going on out there, and I said you're correct and they should be cleaned out.

                We did get all the paperwork done; Alex is now the only owner of The Ford's old Chevy. Yes, he has all the paperwork, and the brand-new title will be sent to him in about 3 weeks.

                On the way home we had discussed the possibility of stopping at George’s restaurant and having breakfast since it was still early in the day. We had a good breakfast and some enjoyable conversations and then we continued taking Alex to his house.

Back at home I did very little other than sit around, my favorite wife has been in the front bedroom going through and cleaning out a bunch of things.

                My dog trace and I did go outside on the front porch and sit and enjoy the fact that it was raining. Yes, it was light rain and nice and quiet as we sat there in the afternoon. We did get a photo of an orange bloom that is shaped like a Christmas tree. It’s a bloom on a cactus plant.

                We decided to go back to George’s restaurant for our date night, which is just supper, and supper was good, the service was good and we enjoyed our time together. We did learn that the wait-staff person that we always talked with when we went there had been terminated. We do not know why.

                The vehicle is still sitting in the neighbor’s driveway the people have not come to pick it up and take it to Ohio yet, and yes, we still have the keys here at the house for the vehicle.

                I had thought that I might venture out to the ditch and attempt to remove some of the weeds but with the rain that canceled that. I did shut the sprinkler system off so it doesn't run in the morning I will wait until tomorrow afternoon assuming it's not raining and then let it operate so I can watch it and make sure it all works as it should. We did get ¼ inch of rain yesterday.

                I have a couple photos from 2014 of a chest that I had built. When I saw the photos I remember making it and I think I remember who we gave it to. It is not bad work for a senior person.

                Today’s events will depend on the weather. I did happen to look out back and saw another flower blooming. I have an early morning photo of the bloom.

                Yesterday I sent the email twice, I could not find on my computer where I had sent it the first time, so I sent it a second time. Ole people make mistakes.

                I will stop and do nothing for now, we hope you have a very good day and stay safe in all you do.

                Mr. Donnie the Ford

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