(This isn’t the Nash Metro Dad bought for Mom. That Metropolitan had the same colors and had been built in the UK and represented part of George Romney’s effort to compete in the Car Wars of the mid-1950s. Ours was naturally built to British standards. There was no “trunk lid” since access to what they […]

(Flowers seem much better at Home!) You can fill in the missing words with ease, but the reality of “Coming Home” after a period of supervised living is pretty abrupt. It causes this to be a briefer edition of The Daily than I had anticipated. Getting used to the hospital ward environment is abrupt and […]

(The Attorney’s office downtown was site of a rare visit off the medical campus yesterday. Delightful!) It may be the end of supervised confinement at medical facilities across Northern Virginia in Culpeper, Vienna, Manassas and points between.

We are breaking the sweltering heat of the fullness of history today. It has been twenty or thirty days of stultifying warmth. The flat-screen has been whimpering about triple-digit sweat for weeks.
