    Doggo! Love dogs, glad you adopted a little canine to keep company. Pets make everything much nicer.

    They really do! Except when they are shedding over everything, which my dog Annie doing is right now as she sheds her winter coat for the summer months.

    Regardless, I was living alone for the first 7 months of the pandemic, so having a companion during the isolation was a life saver. She has a fascinating backstory too, she was rescued from wandering the woods of North Carolina after being shot by a farmer for going after his chickens. Now she lives a much happier life where the only terrorizing she does is the local rodent population (she is an avid ratter).

    Climate change is having a significant impact already. It's almost May and the temperature over here is barely over 10 degrees. Way too cold for this period.

    I attended a Revolutionary War reenactment this weekend. I got pretty badly sunburned, but the photos I got were pretty great!

    Loved the Hessian soldiers! Is that colonel Tarleton on the last pic? What was your role in the reenactment? There are a few battle reenactments in Greece as well, but the majority of the participants is right-wing nutjobs, so I avoid them unfortunately.

    I think so! I was just there taking pictures. I don't have the money for those uniforms, which costs about $2,000 to assemble. I had a chat with the unit of Hessians and they are a group of local history teachers/former students, with the unit being founded by the original teacher of all those teachers. It was a really interesting story.
