Pete and Kelli’s social distance day 6
The most effective laxative over here is listening to Trump bumble his way through the televised Coronavirus virus morning briefing.
The man has no knowledgeable things to say, it is an embarrassment to all the experts who share the stage. I can see that it takes all the self control they have not to speak out and tell him that he is talking rubbish.
There are the stream of sycophants who stroke his ego, I don’t know how they can justify it to themselves and their families.
Both Kelli and I worked together to finish a couple of pieces to add to our collection.
Even with the restrictions we need to try to sell what we can. We are continually looking for smaller pieces that require minimal work that we can sell on cheaply. This is at odds with my philosophy to improve it from its original condition, but maybe this is not the time for ideals.
The big entertainment centre should be ready for collection on Sunday.
She found a couple more pieces in Allegan, so off we went to collect.
This is a drive into Trump country, lots of farmers who have lost markets to the trade tariffs, starved of cash and now going into a pandemic, sucks to be you.
Along the way we spotted a number of Trump signs in the gardens, it wasn’t easy stopping Kelli from driving over them.
