Here’s a sports and weather angle to the events of September 11, 2001.
On Monday night, September 10, the New York Yankees were scheduled to play the Boston Red Sox at Yankee Stadium. It was the fourth game of a four-game series against their rivals, during a hot pennant race.
The weather in New York that night was miserable. It had been raining all day, with fog and low clouds. The area was really socked in, and visibility was very low.
It was certainly no night for baseball, so the Yankees-Red Sox game was canceled.
I was disappointed there would be no game that night.
So I woke up on the morning of September 11 with one thing on my mind: Did the weather clear, and will we have a game tonight?
From our third-floor apartment in Park Slope, Brooklyn, we had a clear line of sight to the World Trade Center towers, about a mile and a half away in a straight line across the East River.
In fact, I used those buildings as a barometer of the weather: the brighter and clearer they looked, the nicer the weather was.
So that morning, I stepped into the kitchen to look out the window with one question in mind: Did the weather clear, and how clearly could I see the two World Trade Center towers?
Continued in the comments — Part 2.
Post storm full moon. Good night moon!

Small Animal Rescue! Michelle was volunteering tonight at the local compost club where we belong, when they noticed a small mouse stuck trying to squeeze through the wire mesh at the bottom edge of the compost bins.
She texted me with this picture, and asked if I could come with some tools. So I gathered up my mouse rescue kit — wire cutters and needle nose pliers — and headed over.
I carefully snipped around the edges of the little guy, and he eventually grabbed onto the tip of my needle-nose pliers and pulled himself loose once I had the mesh cut away enough.
It’s such a little thing, but everyone was so happy that the mouse was rescued and freed to go live the rest of his little life.
Just a regular Wednesday night in Lancaster.

Big news over here and I’m not going to pretend I’m not excited about it!
OpenSRS — the company that powers domain services for Squarespace, Wix, and a lot of the big names you know — just published a case study about me on their website.
Yeah. Me.
I became an official domain reseller with them last year and it’s made a real difference in how I take care of my clients. My clients don’t have to worry about login credentials, expiring domains, or getting bounced around by a faceless support bot or a random GoDaddy operator. I handle all of that. It’s just part of the hands-on, personal service I provide to every client.
They noticed. And they wanted to talk about it.
The case study is pretty technical — it’s really written for their audience.
But the short version is simple: my work caught the attention of a major player in the domain industry, and I’m not going to pretend that doesn’t feel good. 😄

This Old House in Lancaster: Barn Style Garden Shed. Dissatisfied with the choices and prices of prebuilt garden shed/cabinets, I decided I would just build my own. Inspired by the barns throughout the local/Amish countryside, I drew up some plans for a shed, and set out to build it.
For this project I used some basic exterior plywood for the shell and doors, and some smooth hobby board for the door trim. The whole piece is assembled using a Kreg pocket hole jig and exterior wood glue.
I made a ten degree slope on the top to help rain just run off easily.
Then I primed 2 coats of Kilz 2 primer, and three coats of exterior enamel from Benjamin Moore. I chose Barn Red and Arcade White for a classic farm style vibe. Then 3 coats of spar urethane on the top for extra waterproofing and to help protect against UV and weather.
The strap hinges allow the doors to swing all the way around to the side (270°) to get out of the way while open.
Adjustable legs allow the cabinet to sit level on the uneven surface in the backyard.
I’ll probably add a small white barn star to decorate the side panel.
All in all this project took about 6 weeks from start to finish — with the last three weeks just letting the paint fully cure before bringing it outside.
You can’t take the city out of the boy, but you sure can put some country into him!

Recently started making Saag Paneer, and this one was maybe the best one yet. This one combines spinach and turnip greens to make the sauce, which I made sure it was extra juicy and not too thick. Huge Indian dried red peppers throughout and on top. They’re mostly smoky and sweet, but one of them packed a bit of a punch tonight! With @michelle_unnata

How nice! Lancaster News Online has featured our powder room in their Home & Garden section today, in an article themed — Powder Rooms That Pop!
Reporter Rebecca Logan saw pictures I had posted right here on Facebook, and reached out about adding our powder room to her article.
You can read our section of the article in the first picture below. The others pictures I have added here to fill in this post.
Michelle picked out the orange koi wallpaper, and we did some repainting and cleaning, and then I changed out all of the old chrome fixtures with oil rubbed bronze for a more antique look.
The koi mirror and the Japanese print were left here when we bought the house, and were part of the inspiration for the new look.
The 3 other powder rooms in the article were done by an interior designer, so we’re pleased as punch that ours was on the same level!
Thank you to LNP for enjoying our little powder room redesign!

Grand Central Terminal, on a sunny day in New York City. With @michelle_unnata #grandcentralterminal #grandcentralstation #nyc #newyork
Ooooh! Ahhhh! It’s hard to tell just how close we were sitting to the base of the fireworks! They were literally exploding straight over our heads! And, as a result, we were being being rained down upon with chunks of cardboard fireworks shells and little blackened ash cinders. And we could really feel the ground something as each fireworks show was launched off the ground.
Benefits of a small town. We were able to walk up there a half an hour before the fireworks, and be sitting right in front with nobody in front of us.
