9/11

A few minutes ago I turned to a digital clock in our Sun Room and realised the significance of the time.
Exactly 10 years ago at 8:30am on Sept 11, 2001 I was the happiest man in the world! I was up early, prepared and served my wife breakfast in bed to celebrate her birthday. All went well, she loved my gift and by then she already had a few phone calls from all over the world.
She left for work around 8am and I cleared and washed up.
Life couldn't be better. Work was going well, our children doing great in their respective lives and I was anticipating a peaceful day. Why shouldn't it be?
At around 8:50am, the house in good order, I decide to switch on the TV and watch some news..........................

Wow, I just realised how lazy I've become so I'll be adding blogs here in the near future.
The next week wil be quite memorable, the lead up to the anniversary of 9/11, the beginning of the rugby World Cup, the Protea Club braai and probably preparing the garden for the fall.

Here's one of my first recent attempts at stitching photos to form panoramas:
