Let’s Try to Make Sense of Trump’s 50-Tweet Bender. It wasn’t pretty.
President Trump tweeted 50 times over the weekend, posting 20 times on Saturday, and 30 times on Sunday. Between his first tweets on Saturday morning (clips of Lou Dobbs interviewing Diamond & Silk and a former ICE director) and his last on Sunday night (“MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!”), Trump took his followers on a whirlwind tour of his feverish obsession with himself and the media.

Shopping Day

I am at the behest of those who have pickup trucks. My amigos unexpectedly arrived early this morning with a pickup truck saying I needed to go pick out my refrigerator and stove in Filadelphia. I love that charming village . It's about a 45 minute drive through winding mountain roads.

I also needed to pick out floor tile, polyurethane, etc.

The loading process


And this is the park behind the pickup truck. We ate lunch there. How many iguanas do you see?

Minor Romancing the Stone crossing in dry season but during wet season, you'd be washed right into the Pacific.

I arrived alive but too late to post a new edition of AllHatNoCattle.

See you on Monday. Have a great weekend!

Peace.
