Finally some sunshine!


Finally, after almost 3 days of rain here in Johnson County, we actually had a sun-filled day!

Did you enjoy a good book in the shade or at the pool today?

Something I learned today: after the Civil War, some people wanted to punish those who fought against the North by not letting those Southerners hold down any political offices. The 14th amendment to the U.S. Constitution was passed this day in 1868 (3 years after the Civil War was over) to make it illegal to keep Southerners out of politics. Onward marches the drum beat of freedom for all!
