Are you doing anything special in honor of Earth Day today? I will probably spend some time outside tending to a few of my flowers. The pictures below are just a few of what I have in my yard and in pots around my house. I have several pots of those flowers in that image […]
America Weeps There’s a hashtag on Twitter that is gaining momentum, #countrybeforeparty, and I hope it continues. The behavior of our current president, as well as the horrible assault on the Capitol Building on January 6th, is a sad indicator of just how low some people will sink to wield their power. It also
