Wishful thinking
Here’s what my desk will look like after I get organized. Meanwhile I’ll keep this handy as a reminder of Belmont’s July 29th field trip to the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts in Richmond. A few other snaps from, in, or outside:
What we really went to see, a day or two before the exhibition closed July 31st:
Linda & the Blues Brothers
The blue bench
July 6th news from the blue bench garden appears here.
Hyperion rainy day run
Fredericksburg Area Runners Club: Saturday morning runs start 7am in the summer, across the road from Hyperion Espresso.
Singing in red, white, and blue

June primary election
Hartwood Precinct Election Officials, June 21, 2022: Heather Smithson, Mike Friedel, Cassie Corcoran, me, Chuck Schafer, Robert Bady, Margery Schafer, Bob Jankovits, and Electoral Board Secretary Gloria Chittum. A Republican primary for the Virginia’s new 7th district of US Congress. Just 685 people came to vote in our precinct, 244 for Vanuch, 220 for Anderson, 98 for Vega, fewer for Reeves, Ross, and Ciarcia. However this NY Times report shows the winner as Vega (endorsed by Ted Cruz) with 10,875 votes (28.9%). She’ll face Democratic incumbent Congresswoman Abigail Spanberger in November.
