Google and Apple Maps decided to show Lake Ontario as lake America now. The important question, will they change their decision when a Democratic president reverses the felon’s executive order?

Damn, it’s hot today. Almost 100 degrees actual temperature. Earlier the dew points were in the 70s, still oppressive though.

Raining this morning. My corner of Wisconsin really needed it. My rain gauge is already showing 1 3/4 inches. Looks like it’ll keep raining through early afternoon.

My house with newly installed solar/battery system. The last six weeks my house has gotten 99.5% of its electricity from solar and is exporting excess back to the grid.
Suburban Wisconsin home, colonial two story, tan with white trim, a nice yard, big patio, and fifteen solar panels on the roof.

I stayed there for a few days in 2011, would love to go back. Took a couple of tours and visited Ghent while there. Best French fries I’ve ever had.

An alien with very large blue eyes that each have a big and a small pupil, bald, no nose and a large upper lip that curves down says:

You mean to tell me that humans have solar power, wind power, biofuel, tidal power, wave power, hydroelectricity and geothermal energy, and they kill each other over OIL?!?

Here’s a picture of tomatoes and herbs I’ve had good luck with. Basil does well too. I’ve had slightly raised beds but native soil and lots of compost. My garden is on the west side of my house so only about 6 hours of direct sunlight per day.
Tomato and herb plant cards: 

Tomatoes: celebrity, sweet 100, tomatoberry, Roma plum, sugar rush. 

Herbs: Italian parsley, curled parsley and rosemary.

My solar installation, there’s more on the inside than the outside. A little delay because of a question with WE Energies on where to locate the outside power disconnect. But, we got a go head after consulting with a WE Energies engineer. Hopefully up and running by Wednesday next week.

AT&T is laying buried conduit in my neighborhood in preparation for fiber optic. Today they were working in my backyard. Made a big hole and pulled orange conduit. AT&T services here have been so behind the times. Hopefully there will be some price/capability competition with Spectrum now.

I’m in the middle of watching Star Wars movies and TV shows in Star Wars chronological order. Mon Mothma’s speech to the senate in Andor season two episode nine is so relevant to today.
Excerpt from Mon Mothma’s speech to the imperial senate in Andor season two episode nine. 

“The death of truth is the ultimate victory of evil. When truth leaves us, when we let it slip away, when it is ripped from our hands, we become vulnerable to the appetite of whatever screams at us the loudest.”

A lot of melting going on here today. Crazy, just a couple weeks ago there was 14 inches of snow on the ground.
