What will it be like? Will we be able to live in it?
That’s the existential question.
This is the struggle.
Keep your eye on the ball.

The trucks in the driveway made me think they could be MAGA, but the Talarico sign said something else. The young couple that lived there were happy to get the tomato plants I was sharing and happy to know I was also a Talarico supporter. We who are active in the county party are trying to find ways to build community and come together to save democracy--extra seedlings are a great conversation starter if you find you have extra this spring. Any way we can reach out and find others who support democracy helps.
