Good Morning, Colonel. Capetown at dawn is the picture title. (Right click the picture and choose “open link in new tab”. The new tab has the pic info!) I think of you often and always say a prayer.

Good afternoon. I had to run to town and go to my most hated place, WalMart.
Got a laugh out of it though. This older lady and teenager were walking around looking for ingredients to make a cake. I heard the older one saying, “it said we needed a cake mix and ingredients listed on box and we need two containers of icing if we’re making a layered cake. This says we need water, oil and eggs. I have no idea where oil is or what kind of oil.” Then they start wandering off looking for oil. I keep going laughing to myself and then I run into them again and she asks me, “do you know where to find oil?” I had heard the conversation already so I told her it was down the baking aisle, the same aisle they got the cake mixes on. She says, “this box doesn’t say what kind of oil, do you know what kind of oil?” I told her vegetable oil would work. She says, “oh good so it’s not in the auto stuff?” I told her nope I don’t think it would taste very good if you put motor oil in it.
I seriously hope they were joking if not there are some dumb people in the world.

Ides did not occur on a specific day, but in the earliest calendars were tied to the first full moon. In the case of March, the first full moon of the year, as the calendar started in March. The Romans did not number the days of the month sequentially, instead they counted back from three fixed points: Nones (5th or 7th), Ides (13th or 15th) and Kalends (1st of every month).

Today we have another picture by Martin Driscoll “Showing the Horses”
Here is a real life Irish Purebred –
She’s flying!
But seriously, the much loved Traditional Irish Sport Horses are being lost to breeding with warmbreeds.
https://horsenetwork.com/2016/06/demise-irish-sport-horse/
The Demise of the Irish Sport Horse
“We are on the verge of losing these valued bloodlines forever.”
Phyllis Dawson 2 years ago
I recently spent a week in Ireland shopping for young event prospects and was shocked to find the traditionally bred Irish Sport Horse is seriously endangered. Due to the infusion of European warmbloods into the breeding programs, the ISH breed is being diluted as more of the draught and sport horse mares are being crossed with warmbloods rather than TBs. The result is fewer and fewer of the true, traditional Irish Sport Horses are being produced. We are on the verge of losing these valued bloodlines forever. On my most recent shopping trip I visited 17 different yards [in] Ireland. I looked at a total of 67 horses for sale, and of those only 12 of them were traditionally Irish bred. The rest were warmblood crosses. Irish horses take a bit longer to develop than most other breeds, and it seems many buyers do not understand this. They are attracted to the flashy movement and jump many warmbloods show as 2 and 3-year-olds, rather than the prospect of waiting for the ISH to mature and reach full potential……but they [the cross breeds] often lack the gallop, stamina and heart needed at the highest levels of Eventing. The characteristics that give warmbloods that big trot with the long stride and slow tempo do not necessarily help them on the cross-country course or in the hunt field……
Sadly it is not only the Irish people that are being over-run by outsiders brought in, it is also their beloved horses. Even in the comments section of the article one person foolishly wrote: “we have to move to more of a European warmblood.” Another part of the Irish culture would be gone.

I didn’t post anything about the student protest yesterday, because I don’t view it as a legitimate protest. The schools encouraged the students to protest, and their absences were excused by the schools. My grandson’s school was one of those, and I asked what provisions were made for students who chose not to protest. Apparently those students would stay in their first period classes for the duration. This is what I wrote on Facebook about it:
My opinion, and only mine. It is great that students want to protest peacefully for something they believe in.
I don’t think protests should be organized by public schools, or that teachers and schools should be encouraging or pushing students politically in one direction or another.
If students want to protest, let them organize outside of school, and outside of normal school hours. Saturday would be good. If they choose to take a day off school to protest, it shouldn’t be excused. School days are for school, just as work days are for work for adults. If I wanted to protest on a work day, I would have to use a vacation or sick day, or not be paid.

As I’ve said before, Snowflake doctrine does not allow for assigning guilt to and individuals when there’s a perfectly good inanimate object to blame.
Yesterday the local news had tearful in nercity black Moms boo-hoo-hooing about their childen ‘killed by gun violence’. Uhhhhh…’scuse me black mommas, your children weren’t killed by guns, they were killed by members of the far-too-large feral black youth cadre.

This article caught my eye. Of course, if you don’t read the whole thing, it appears that the black boy is being discriminated against. And, of course, his mother immediately thinks that. However, it isn’t true at all. He has stepped up to help. Very courageous and sad at the same time because of his reasoning. She has to be very proud of him and herself for raising such a child.

Morning Stellar friends. A last bit of Iditarod stuff. Aliy crossed the finish line last night about 9:20 pm. Here’s a couple of photos.
Nice sunset going on in the last photo–spring’s definitely coming! Allen was there at the finish line to greet her.

Thank Tundra for your inside view! Aliy looks beautiful! Will she sleep for 3 days or be so excited not sleep for 3 day?
And thanks for the poodle link, the chap was certainly interesting! The Johnny Carson bit really gave flavor to his personality.

Glad you enjoyed it all, lovely!
Aliy is an amazing woman, and one I am proud to call my friend. She is probably the strongest woman I’ve ever known. She is 6 feet tall and bench presses 250 lbs. She is kind and helpful, and seemingly always cheerful. And she loves her dogs. Thanks for helping me pull for her!

It was my pleasure Tundra, your view brings the race alive for me. 6 feet tall and bench press 250 pounds!!? Neat, for some reason I just saw that sunny smile and thought she was somewhat petite like a teenager. She looks like a happy happy soul!

I think it’s sad also. I can’t imagine the pressure that they are under. When she opened the letter with the white powder in it and was taken to the hospital she had to be terrified, imaging her 5 children and all those thoughts that must have been racing through her brain.
God’s peace and speed to that family. Perhaps, just perhaps, it is a strategic move to let her and the children have a safe place of their own away from the chaos and hatred, that is what my artistic romantic heart wants this to be.

I have been getting those spam “your phone is infected with viruses” messages nonstop next door today. Only next door once I click on posts. 1st time its ever been a problem. Because I only use 1 device, my phone, and no problems here, I have to assume theres a problem on CTH.
Any idea Stella or Menagerie?

lilbirdee12’s prayer:
Our Heavenly Father, Your children come to you tonight to ask for healing and peace throughout our country so that we may return to being One Nation Under God. Guide us to be leaders in Your Kingdom, spreading Your Love and Salvation to all. Forgive us our sins and deliver us from evil.
Lord, we ask for a blanket of protection over all our troops and law enforcement who serve to defend and protect us. Bless our representatives with the strength and wisdom they need to achieve the path You have chosen for us.
Please place Your Guardian Angels of Protection around Donald Trump and Mike Pence and their families as they seek to lead America back to You.
Grant us patience, Lord, as the evil ones try to anger us and cause us to fall.
Spread blessings over Israel and Netanyahu.
We humbly ask that You please comfort those who are grieving and in pain.
Thank you Father, for Your Love and the gift of Life.
In Jesus name, we pray. Amen.
