I attended the protest on April 5th at Reid Park. My sign, "I.C.E. = NAZIS." There were thousands of people there. Most of the cars passing honked their horns in support. I was there for 1.5 hours and saw only seven cars with pro-Orange Rapist people. One woman in a truck screamed "Paid protesters!" at us. We laughed and I wondered aloud, "Where's my check?"
Well since January 20th my 401K has dropped almost $88,000. That Fucking Piece of Shit is busy destroying the economy and his idiot advisors are cheering him on. Lots of insider trading going on, so there are getting richer. I go to the White House Facebook page daily and leave comments calling his a Fucking Piece of Shit and if Melanie shows up, the First Whore. Also on the I.C.E. page lots of NAZIS and Gestapo comments.
Apparently 20,000 people attended.
I have been monitoring trenches behind Teatro Carmen, which is being restored and new sewer and water lines, along with stage foundations. I have found four outhouse pits. Not a huge amount of artifacts, but I have had a couple of fun days collecting artifacts.

They took down the pressed tin ceilings from 1915. They will sand blast the old paint off and paint them copper, which is what they used to be, before reinstalling them.

Last weekend Matt and I applied a coating of the white rubberized coating on the roof of my house and the guest house. I confess, climbing down the ladder is no fun. We have another layer to paint on yet.

Puff J'Markus Jr. and Smokey the Bear are about 10 or 11 months old now and full grown. Puff has become a cuddle cat while Smokey likes to be petted but always want to play bite. They got fixed a while ago, right after one of them started peeing in the house. Luckily that stopped.

Still figuring out the sewing machine. Was able to get thread wound on the bobbin. Then was able to correctly thread the needle. But when I sew large amounts of thread ends up on the bottom side. Doug says the tension may be off. I will investigate.
