Luckiest People in the World

Deep, Deep Blue

There was no post yesterday because I was out working to ensure our democracy. And now, for the first time in my voting lifetime, all the states surrounding Lake Michigan are blue. Indiana, that last Great Lakes hold out, a place where I have lived and voted in the past, actually selected a Democrat for President. So now, every single Great Lakes state, even every state that can see a Great Lake from their front porch (ha!) is firmly in the column of the Democrats. Obviously, I see this as a good thing. Other readers may not, but that's why this is my blog. Time t o breathe in the calm blue reality....
