YESTERDAY AND TODAY
**Yesterday. Besides my usual publishing's, I took down the garden size American flags
from the front yard, sprayed weed killer, on mostly what I call pig weeds, and mowed
most of the lawn with about about 1/2 hour of mowing yet to do before I'm finished.
**Today. Besides publishing my daily blog, I plan to mow the rest of the lawn, spray more
weed killer, divide and dig up overgrown plants and replant the divided parts, spread the 2
bags of black pearl mulch I have and plant the remaining bulbs I had forgotten about.
The weather forecast for today calls for high and low temperatures of 79° and 61° (my
Acurite weather gauge displays a temperature of 63° right now) with sunny skies. I did not
water the flower beds yesterday so I do need to do that this evening.
One of the 3 videos I produced yesterday is not up to my standards, so I need to do it again
because of my too many hesitations. You'll not see a video today unless I have time and
if not I should have a video for your viewing tomorrow.
9:13 AM 7/9/2017 EDT. I've just returned from Orrville to get money from the ATM,
purchasing thick bologna, bananas, cherries, black grapes, my favorite, but they say the
red are better you, at Buehler's grocery store and then drove to General Dollar for birthday
cards, a candle with Mary of the Bible on the front and some other things that I or the
house needed.
I HAVE SOMETHING ON MY MIND
**Orrville had their fireworks last night at 10:00 PM, I not staying up to watch them
because I usually go to bed around 8:30 PM. When I went to Orrville for take out at about
6:00 PM at the China Buffet, I could see that people were setting up to view the fireworks
with blankets and chairs upon the ground. From the house you can see the fireworks
which is about 3 miles distance from Orrville. I told you that I saw part of the Orrville
parade on July 4th when I drove to Orrville for super steak, sausage sandwiches
and fair fries at Bob's Concession at the carnival.
Once you've seen the best in parades, the rest are trivial in comparison.
The best parade I ever saw was in Papillion, Nebraska and I have not seen an equal or a
better one since. The second best might have been in Omaha, Nebraska that honored Labor
Day or the one in Cleveland honoring Desert Storm soldiers. I was a participant in the
Desert Storm parade so I don't know just how good it was to the onlookers.
The best fireworks display was from a casino (in Iowa) across the Missouri River from
Omaha, the river being a boundary line between Nebraska and Iowa. My 2 oldest
grandchildren and I observed the fireworks from the banks of the wide Missouri River
facing east toward the casino.
From the back of my business card:
"And because of brave men and women who fought to keep this country free, we can yes
or no to anything that's asked."
Thank you.
Sincerely,
Forrest Caricofe
And a quote from my July 4th blog:
*"I believe the essence of the Independence Day is missing. We celebrate it like any other
holiday, which is wrong. We must celebrate our independence everyday, not just on one
day of the year."
Arin Paul
I know it's late in my life, but I'm going to start this very day celebrating the freedoms I
have in this country 365 or 366 days of the year.
