Evil Urges 2016 Politics

     I have new glasses and like them much better than the old ones as I can now read the fine print again. We spent April 7th-10 with Silas in Indiana and watched him Friday while his parents were working. He learned how to get up out of the lower family room into the rest of the house under our care. We had 3 great days there though the weather was a mix of everything, the travel was fine. Jon changed his work location to Plymouth which gives him an earlier start and longer drive but it's less stressful than Gary was. Last night we went to the Starlight Theater at Waverly East and watched Greg in You Can't Take It With You. The flowers are starting to come out and the grass is growing with the rain that let up for a week but is mixing cool with warm weather. It looks like Trump vs. Clinton for the election which certainly is not a good omen for our nation. Prince died Thursday the 21st and Purple Rain fell on Earth Day. The water in Flint is getting better and Governor Snyder says he'll drink the water but is leaving for Europe for a week while 3 state officials take the blame for him. Politics that's dirty makes you wonder is everything fixed to protect the elite while the masses struggle on believing in falsehoods about justice and equality! Helter Skelter!

Catching up if I can

  The leap year has had over 2" more than normal precipitation with 8" of snow cancelling school the first 2 days of March. We visited Silas the first weekend of March with Simon as well as Phillip for Easter the 25th-27th in Canton. We went to Fanny May and the Belden Mall again as well as the McKinley Memorial. We picked up Phil's new grill at Lowes and put it together and grilling out before heading for home on Sunday. I finished my therapy at Arch the end of March and found out I tore my right bicep. We all voted for Bernie in the Michigan Primary and he won Michigan. I turned 65 and am now on Medicare.  Jane and I went to Grand Rapids Saturday for Grant Schertzing's wedding at Chaney Place. It was snowing on the way there but it was a fun time. MSU got a #2 seed and lost in the 1st round to Middle Tennessee State which I luckily only saw some of the 2nd half of as I was subbing and then had therapy. Monday Villanova beat North Carolina with a 3 pointer at the buzzer to win the NCAA and MSU ended up #7 in the final poll. I'm on spring break this week and we are going to see Silas tomorrow for the weekend and to celebrate some birthdays. The grass is getting green but the temperatures have been cool so still awaiting a real spring!
