I know, I know. The chaos keeps coming, and it is hard to stay abreast of it all. This week’s account of the Swamp Follies includes the defenestration of Scott Pruitt as EPA Administrator, the realization that the North Koreans are doing what they always do (lying), and the sad observation that the state of political discourse has coarsened to the point that it just….sucks.

A sublime and ridiculous week. I am just back from Michigan after a trip to meet my grand-daughter and look in on my grandson. I blush to say the little girl has the most extraordinary blue eyes ever and is a total joy. The little boy is filled with energy that left me tired just watching him race around the yard.

There are some things in life that are beyond precious.

Then I came back to The Swamp. It was a hell of a week. Here is the postcard. Having a wonderful time. Wish you were here.
