January 20, a Day That Shall Live in Infamy

 I'm no longer active on Facebook as of today. Because I want to stay in touch with friends and family far and wide, I'm resurrecting my blog. Please feel free to comment if you wish to send me a message.

I love this photo of Melania's wide-brimmed hat keeping her repulsive husband from closing in for a kiss.

In other revolting news: The felon-in-chief has already started swinging his wrecking ball. He has pardoned nearly all of the 1,600 incarcerated January insurrectionists. He withdrew from the Paris climate accords. He declared a National Emergency at the Southern border allowing him to unlock federal funding for the wall and deploy the National Guard and military. And pulling out of the Paris Climate Accords.Then there is the cryptocurrency meme coin scam he and Melania launched on January 18. There's more, so much more, transgender, immigrants, women's rights, immigrants, the environment
all under attack. You read it in the news, saw it on TV, found it on your phone, I'm just making these notes to remind me.


On to happier notes - yesterday was a wonderful day celebrating Logan's birthday at Sam's Chowder House in Half Moon Bay. Valery, Ben, Logan and I feasted and enjoyed the nippy sea air. I loved getting to spend time with these wonderful people.





We saw this goofy motorcycle in a Half Moon Bay parking lot where surfers hang out. I think it is supposed to be a snail, or maybe a slug. Half Moon Bay is really surfer city because of Mavericks, the bodacious surfer site. Our waitress told a record was broken last week when a surfer conquered a 100-foot wave.

Do you all know I have moved into Atria Covell Gardens Assisted Living? For the most part I'm very happy there. I have many new interesting friends and have found much of interest in the Davis community outside the facility. I enjoy playing bridge with an assortment of friends with various limitations (I also have some) which makes for a rather unique and often hilarious version of bridge which I'm sure has Charles Goren churning in his grave. I will be sharing some of these moments as time goes by. I'm involved with some local political stuff, attend the Davis United Methodist Church and serve on their Social Justice committee. I take several OLLI classes from UC Davis and have made new friends through that connection. More details on all that in subsequent posts. 

I'm going to sign off for tonight but will be back soon to do further political venting and to stay in touch with all of you.
