I am always inspired by the monumental, and not-so-monumental, works of human ingenuity. Whenever I see a bridge, or a mountain road, or a tall building, it reminds me of how people, down through the ages, have altered their environment by building things to make their lives easier, or to commemorate occasions or people.

For the first eleven days of September, Hubby and I drove from our home in Washington State to South Dakota and back. We went through the states of Washington, Idaho, Montana, Wyoming, South Dakota and North Dakota.

The so-called "Public Health" "Authorities", and the so-called "Press" (scare quotes fully intended) seem to be in collusion with the state government to ruin society. If Society means people interacting with each other for mutual benefit, Society is being ruined, decimated by the reactions of Government to the spread of the Wuhan Coronavirus. The lockdowns …
