Stella's Place 
Stellars, have a lovely Sunday spent visiting islands near the coast of Normandy, France, and in the Irish Sea!
Three island territories found in the British Isles are designated as Crown Dependencies: the Isle of Man (Irish Sea); the Bailiwick of Jersey (comprised of Jersey and numerous tiny islands and islets); and the Bailiwick of Guernsey (the islands of Guernsey, Alderney, Sark, Herm, Jethou). The two bailiwicks constitute the Channel Islands. The Crown Dependencies are not part of the United Kingdom. Instead they are self-governing possessions of the British Crown.

In May of 1940 to September 1945, numerous locations on the Isle of Man were sites of internment camps for British Nazi sympathizers and foreign nationals of the Axis powers.
WW2 Internment in the Isle of Man
After the Germans invaded France in May 1940, Jersey, Guernsey, Alderney and Sark were occupied by the Nazis for nearly five years beginning in June, 1940.

Mornings get shorter early on, you are correct though. I recall the 23rd or so is the latest for sunset!

Mornin’ all! Our Favorite Sunday Columnist shares her thoughts on a possible new mini-series………….Wilmington, based on The Big Guy and 50 years worth of corruption, lies and intrigue. It could last all summer. 😉

Not only a mini-series to last all summer, it could hopefully last until November 5, 2024. At that time prayerfully a true miracle from God will occur and President Trump will be re-elected. We know the outcome for our nation if he isn’t.

My fav:
In any event, the response by Hunter’s lawyer seems particularly laughable. “Any verifiable words or actions of my client, in the midst of a horrible addiction, are solely his own and have no connection to anyone in the family.” Of course, the defense — he’s a crackhead and you can’t believe anything he says — conflicts with Hunter’s claim that the millions he received for “consulting,” “legal,” and “board fees” were for some expertise and good judgement. David Burge (Iowahawk to his legion of fans, of which I am part) hits the satirical nail on the head: “Your honor, did I mention that the alleged event took place during a full moon and my client is a werewolf.”

Coffee’s up, y’all. Grab a cup and sit a spell. It’s too dang hot to do anything outside, so you might as well fire up the refrigerated air machine and enjoy your morning.

I remember thinking when “carbon credits” first became a thing, that it just didn’t seem to add up. Now, the guy who ran the scam for 15 years is stepping aside and says he’s not sure they lived up to their mission………..

Really some top-shelf help at Harvard. Researcher working on a study about honesty is accused of faking data. The headlines just write themselves some days.
