94 days of Safer at Home

Beautiful Wisconsin day, sunny, breezy, low 70s for temps.

Continuing on my commitment to learn more about the systemic racism in our country, I'm keeping a list of my journey as I learn the history that leads us to now.  Last night I watched the documentary by Ken Burns about The Central Park Five.  Every one of these films makes me wish I had been more active in the civil rights work that many have carried on over the years.  I also know that I have remained silent when I should have spoken up to challenge racist language.  I can do better.

✅Documentary on Netflix called 13th
✅The movie I Am Not Your Negroe

✅The movie Selma

✅The Central Park Five by Ken Burns

Tonight I am going to watch the Netflix version of The Central Park Five story called When They See Us.

This new Peony called Little Imp sure is a beauty.  

I will be adding a few more roots of this variety in the fall.

I love this other new peony too, this one is called Sweetie.

Even prettier today than yesterday.

It is a good year for Iris here, the purple ones caugh my eye at the edge of the yard.

I've had a few friends ask how long I am going to self quarantine.

I look at it this way, I have 94 days invested in my health and that has paid off.

I'm not sure what it will take for me to want to risk that investment, 

but I am sure it will have to be something very important with very low risk.

In the meantime, I am Safer at Home.
