Taking the bite out

 Overcast.  That's the word for the day here in Central Pa.  We've had showers overnight and more are on the way.  Our high yesterday was 95 (F).  Today the mercury is only supposed to climb up into the low 80s.  As an outside working temp, the low to mid 80s are on the spot.  Now, let's hope the humidity stays down.

I planted my small garden yesterday.  I took out some of the back pavers from the veranda and moved them up front.  Underneath the pavers is a layer of pea gravel.  While providing great drainage, I didn't know how well it would be for growing so I bought a couple of bags of dirt.  Because of the trees around my property, it's difficult to find a spot where there is a lot of sunshine, not that my yard isn't sunny, they just change location as the sun crosses the sky.  I'm thinking of having the large maple tree on the hill behind the house topped, that will let in a lot more sunlight.

Two tomatoes, one pepper, and a zucchini

I saw where that celebrity legal case so many have been paying attention to is now over, at least for the time being.  I never paid any attention to it.  My sister said it was really about 2 drunks fighting in public.  My sister can be very, very smart.

There was another mass shooting yesterday.  So, what else is new?  Oh, there is a bipartisan group of senators working on some sort of gun control legislation.  One of the Republicans involved is Susan Collins.  I supposed she's trying to show she can do what her constituents want, especially after Kavanaugh used, and abused, her vote in order to get his ass on the Supreme Court.

71% of Americans have no problem with same sex marriage.  That may make you happy but remember the 29% of Americans who hate it managed to get a majority of seats on the Supreme Court.  How do we make the Supreme Court toothless? Vote blue this November.  If the Democrats can win enough seats in the House and Senate, we can take the bite out of the conservative losers.
