Week In Review

Haven't been posting regularly lately - no particular reason - so here are a few things I haven't mentioned....
Looks like Spring is definitely here - we had the first hibiscus bloom (a red one) of the season on Monday.
Voted on Tuesday.  At our little country polling station - Cypress Point Baptist Church - there is never an appreciable wait.  Honey went right in and I had to wait for someone to finish checking in at the other check in desk. That must have taken all of 45 seconds.  
Wednesday, we heard on the news that the last voter left the polling place at Texas Southern University at 1:20 Wednesday morning. The rule says that as long as you are in line when the polls close, you get to vote, and newscasters were using that as evidence of the huge (Democrat) turnout in Harris County, and I guess it was.  
But ….now that the law says you can vote at any polling place in your county of residence (and there's even an app that showed locations and wait times) I think it says more about the intelligence of the voters in those ridiculously long lines.
Nothing much to report yesterday, and, so far, today looks pretty quiet, too.
