At the marina on the Inner Harbour of Victoria, British Columbia, this morning shot of the boats, and the very calm water. Gentle ripples, and no one stirring this early.

A Short ECON101 Lesson about Taxes
Right now, the US Congress is hashing out a "tax reform" set of bills intended to change the ways taxes are confiscated from American workers and savers.

That’s Racist!
A recent op-ed in Pravda on the Hudson, better known as the New York Times, says the writer is telling his black child that he may not be friends with white children. Sorry, but That's Racist. That's Deplorable.
Temporary-Beautiful Things That Don’t Last
The fact that cloud formations are by their nature temporary makes you appreciate them more. How often have you looked up at spectacular clouds, and had to keep watching as they scud across the sky at the mercy of winds on high? Our skies out here in Western Washington State are often gray, but there …
Peek at some architecture-Photo Challenge
This piece of building, obviously in ruins now, was the beginning of a breakthrough that formed the beginnings of Gothic architecture. Want to see the rest of this very old building? Here it is. You can see the tracery wall in the middle front of the medieval castle. A peek into history. https://dailypost.wordpress.com/photo-challenges/peek/
