Emergency

 We're out of wine!  So I made an emergency trip to the Grimsby LCBO for a box of Chardonnay, a box of Shiraz, and 1.5 litres of Canadian Club.

I shared the elevator on the way up with a lady.  Explained my purchases by saying "It's going to be a long winter".  She replied, "that will only last a week".  I didn't realize that she knew us!

--------------------------------------------

While I was in Grimsby, I made a side trip to the greenhouse.  My first visit since Christmas Day.

The Easter Lilies are coming along nicely.



And I got even better news.  I have three chairs to repair and two Muskoka chairs to put together and finish.  Yeehaw, I'm needed!

Had a nice chat over coffee with the family.  Sarah-Jean is heading back to Pembroke tomorrow so I had a chance to say au revoir.

It continues to amaze/disgust me that so many people actually believe the conspiracy crap that the right wing media spew.

I can understand the white trash fringe of the Republican party being that stupid, but we continue to see supposedly intelligent people soak it up.  I have to believe that they started out with white supremacist beliefs, looked for the echo chambers that support that belief, and soaked it all up.  I suppose that if the only people you listen to are Sean Hannity, Lou Dobbs, Tucker Carlson, Laura Ingraham, etc. you never expose yourself to the truth.

Pretty damn sad!

Stay well.  Keep the faith.
