2nd Blog Post of the Day, Remember Kent State May 4 1970

Remembering the 40th Anniversary of Kent State May 4, 1970...and OH Governor Rhodes quote:
"We are going to eradicate the problem. We're not going to treat the symptoms."

People seem to get upset with some of my posts. But, you know what? This "stuff" is important to me. People may classify some of what I think, ponder and worry about as "politics" and "stuff" you're not supposed to "talk about". I classify it as "life" and it's the life we're in right now. In my small opinion, the only way to possibly make it better is to start to engage in rational conversations with each other. We've been taught for years that we shouldn't talk about these things and now we don't know how. We're bombarded with press releases as news telling us what we should and shouldn't think, what we shouldn't talk about. I strongly feel that the more we talk about things, the more we can possibly change for the better. If you don't like what I write, I'm sorry. But it's part of my life just as much as it is part of your life. It's my responsibility just as it is yours.

I love this wreath
This post brought back memories and made me wonder, are there buttercups in So Ca?
I do this, but it's the opposite. I get so excited when I see a license plate from MA or one with a MA license plate and stickers of something that was near where we lived! Yeah, I'm weird.
I would love to be along for the ride here.
Will you be standing this Mother's Day, May 9th at 1 p.m.? I will.
