We do not watch TV anymore, actually for the last 25 years We read the papers online and listen to NPR, our local public radio station Wjff, and WAMC public radio. Way to much emotion and opinions injected on all of the cable news channels I do not need an opinion spoon fed to me to form my own.

The garden is my sanctuary of sanity and reality we are in the Catskills I keep a small greenhouse in the winter for greens to tinker in

It is saddening to see the same thing being repeated as the 2016 election of a fracturing of supporting groups, I will vote for whoever is on the ticket against the orange menace.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Undecided
