Greetings from Charlotte - a very short walk from car to destination

A friend of mine performed in a play and I drove to see the matinee. Tomorrow is the deadline the government set to our hasty lawmakers who passed a discriminatory law in 11 hours, and now have called a 5 day deadline “being bullied”.

Since it all started in Charlotte I took a few photos for you, my son calls me “the war correspondent” as of late, and one never knows what may happen so my camera is always in my pocket.

Just a peaceful interesting walk:

I actually like the third, for the very same reason. Happy Monday! I'm hoping you will have a tolerable week ahead.

I can't say anything appropriate, because in your situation I don't know what that means. I like the "good" part.
Try to do it again, then!
You're making me smile.
