Well Tuesday was mainly overcast except for moments of sunshine and low humidity. It looked like rain for most of the day and just after dark the skies let loose with some heavy down pours. I think the forecast is for more rain today which is greatly needed. I piddled around outside for most of the morning and then took a long bike ride of a couple miles. I'm finally getting the legs and lungs ready for some pickle ball starting next week.
Nancy took off with Amy and the girls to do some Easter shopping for all the grands as well as Ava's birthday next month. She will soon be 15, wow where has those years gone. She is quite mature physically for her age and is a star on the basketball court as well as in the classroom. Sam stayed home with Rocky as he is now mature enough to be left alone and later they dropped Eliza off as she is not a shopper unless its for her.
I spent the biggest part of the day finishing a fantastic true to life read titled INTO THE LIONS MOUTH. It's the story of a double agent during WWII who became a spy for both Germany, England and even the USA at times. He forewarned FBI's Hoover 4 months before the attack on Pearl Harbor but Hoover who hated this man sat on it and now we know the results of his decision. Dusko Popov inspired Ian Fleming the creator of the James Bond movies and books and was the model for both. A very interesting read and it was Popov who convinced the German's the invasion of Europe was going to be at a different location than Normandy. He truly was a patriot and its strange I've never heard his name before until I read this book. His life was in danger throughout his decision to become a spy who hated the Nazi's and what they stood for and was able to help the Allies win the war.
Nancy had a corn beef cooking for most of the day and then we had cooked cabbage, taters and carrots to compliment the bowl. It wasn't the most tasty beef but we of course seldom eat it so the combination of the herbs and the brine wasn't to our liking, but we ate it and have enough for another meal. We tuned into the Fox News as well as Newsmax to get the real news on whats happening to Ukraine and America. We have such a degenerate bunch of democrat politicians running the country that wants US(A) to fail. It's down right despicable and all of them should be indicted for treason including the past bunch of democrat elites like Obama and Hillary. Never have I ever felt like these crooks in our gov't actually hate the nation and could care less for the average working patriot. I hope we survive these inept crooked folks inside the beltway of D.C. who supposedly were sent there to represent the folks of
this nation and not our enemies, LATER
