COVID-19 Wk 33:The End is Near

Anyone who has read some of my more recent posts knows my feelings on Trump. I loathe the man! So here is to hope, that come Tuesday night, his days as President are numbered in weeks not years! Living in the liberal bubble that is the PDX metro area makes it difficult to gauge things…

COVID-19 Wk 32: Vote Damnit
