The weather man said that some folks got rain and others did not; we got the rain here at home.

I am part of the era of thinking that this planet is our heaven on earth and the planet should be taken care of and enjoyed. Flower Power.

I will protect the land I have from chemicals and thieves, I will enjoy and nourish what is here; if the worms want to make fertile soil then I will help them with organic matter.

If you can remove the salt from sea water and water your garden then do so, the moisture from your garden will rise and rain will fall elsewhere;  you can beat the desert one yard at a time. Israel has and so has Las Vegas.

I have lived long enough to understand that the church wants money and control of humanity. I remember that the Jews were turned away from the United States during the Holocaust. I remember the Catholic Church did nothing about Hitler. I remember the South being free with signs saying, "Whites Only". I remember my friend Emory with a chip on his shoulder (my first Jewish friend). I later met a Jewish Princess who loved life and taught me to do so. I remember, "Little Richard" being so talented he got nothing; I remember Joe Louis living in poverty. I remember Mahatma Gandhi living in peace with nothing. I remember Ayn Rand with the overpowering steel and stone. I remember Michelangelo loving, chipping, carving and polishing marble.

I remember all the images and deities and Marilyn Monroe.
This morning I saw Alice Walker and Laurel Rose.

I just cleaned half the pool. This is my third day of cleaning the pool; the first day it was green and singing, yesterday it was dirty, today it is cleaner but still a little dirty; I may jump in today.

I just cleaned the other half of the pool. I will let it warm up a bit and do so other chores before getting in and placing the steps in with those hand rails. I think it a little to cool for mom but you never know?
