WE WOULD BE BEST SERVED BY DOING BOTH

DAWN IN BAYFIELD  (AND HOPEFULLY IN AMERICA)

Tuesday, Election Day, 8:30 AM.  50 degrees F at the ferry dock, 44 on the back porch.  Wind NNW, very strong with even greater gusts.  The sky is clear, the humidity 86%.  The barometer is mostly steady, currently at 30.23".  The next ten days will be a bit cooler but still no hard frost and little chance of rain.  It is still beautiful in Bayfield.

   Joan and I will vote this morning and then its back to the basics of getting ready for winter around the house and yard, and finishing up whatever landscape jobs still can be done while this ideal fall weather lasts. 

   We will vote for Donald Trump and the Republican ticket and platform as the best chance the country has to bring back business and jobs, to support law, order and justice at home, and our military abroad, and to protect the Constitution and its Bill of Rights, and to ensure that we have strong borders to keep out illegals, terrorists and drugs.

   We have an increasingly amoral society, reflected in the corruption and cynicism of the elites and our political leaders. Hillary Clinton thanked  Gaga (Lady Gaga) last night, not God.  Go figure.     
   Regardless of what else happens, real change and genuine progress won't come to us until decency and patriotism return to our daily lives.  When our society changes, our country's prospects will improve, not before.

   Maybe we should be going to church today instead of to the polls; but we would be best served by doing both.

SOME ONE FOUND OUR VANDALIZED TRUMP/PENCE SIGN, STRAIGHTENED IT OUT AND PUT IT BACK IN PLACE.  THAT'S ENCOURAGING!
