From Kenton, I took Highway 21 to get back to Brandon.
The sky!!!
A Canadian Comes Back from Being in China (2004-25)
As I was saying I am having a bit of a free morning. So I can have a nice leisurely to Kenton where I am doing a fund raising shift.
The roads are not great. They could use some resurfacing but the view is calming, pretty, peaceful. Coming from Brandon, there is no direct route with paved roads. The route I took was winding and went North of Kenton before I could get near to the town.
Finally, I got there.
I then drove around.
A dirt road.
A street in the town.
The anniversary used to be a big deal but at a certain point I had concluded that whoever was responsible for the attacks had won. America was weakened as a result of them.
I was in Aldergrove, Abbotsford and Hope, British Columbia on that day.
Here is David Warren’s recollection of the day. There is one memory with me that he shared of that day.
Inserting image is working again.
This morning, I signed my contract with the BSD.
This afternoon, I prayed the Rosary for the first time in a while.
The photo isn’t uploading right away.

Voila!!!
The sun shines through the trees.

The photo seems to appear after I paste it, using my laptop.
Now. Let’s see if I can direct you to a video.
That works. I just watched this video. A good analysis of what is happening in the world.
He’s no fan of Trump or Carney.
I had one Twenix class with a woman living in Spain. She had lived for thirty years in France.
I practiced some Chinese on a clerk. She responded in rapid fire Chinese. I got the gist.
Sign my contract with the BSD tomorrow. Hurray!
The weather is autumn-like.
I need to prepare for some classes.
I expect that the BSD will start classes today. I don’t know whether to expect work this week.
My nephew is taking part in tunnel-drilling in British Columbia.
Hoping for some Twenix Bookings.
Wendell Berry (all e’s in spelling) died recently. He wrote this:
True solitude is found in the wild places, where one is without human obligation.
I crave solitude. I enjoy the hints I have of it.
This picture makes the weather appear better than it really is. It’s actually windy and unsettled. By unsettled, I mean the clouds look dirty like they haven’t showered for a couple days. I look at these clouds and I get depressed.
School hasn’t started today in the Brandon School Division. It’s an administration day. So tomorrow. I had assumed it was.
Tony’s ACC has started however. I drove him for his morning to the North Hill campus.
I’m watching this:
This painting reminded me of my past weekend’s driving:
