I am writing the 9/11 stories today since I wasn't able to yesterday.
Yesterday, the weather especially didn't cooperate. It rained pretty much all day, at times quite hard. Accumulation in Chicago was at 3 inches and I'm guessing from water collected in sone containers in my yard, about 4 inches here.
And, it was quite windy. On he morning I took my English flag down (Queen Elizabeth) and decided not to put the U.S. one up. The wind blew down my NIU Huskies banner on the front porch.
I went out on the driveway and got my Sunday Chicago Tribune and paging through it, did not see one article about 9/11. I was surprised.
I had read in the Northwest Herald newspaper (for McHenry County) that a group in Johnsburg, Illinois, were going to post U.S. flags between the bank on Johnsburg Road and the Johnsburg Library. Since that is just four miles from home I decided to go to that.
Part 2 continued today on my Down Da Road I Go Blog.
