Trump takes office, vows an end to ‘American carnage’


"American carnage?"  Huh?

What and ugly and nonsensical way of describing the inevitable growing pains of a country that has increased by over 200 million since WWII and which is now a part of a stronger global world.

Our parents grew up either dirt poor or lower middle class, and became engineers, nurses, teachers, and college professors.  Both of our fathers volunteered for WWII, as did Vicky's son for Iraq and Afghanistan.  The two of us have been educators, counselors, and police officers.  Our children have become successes at a wider variety of fields and endeavors than can even be imagined, or actually in some instances even described.  All good, decent, hard-working, and caring.

They are but a tiny fraction of the many people who are as beautiful as the country we live in.

There is no "American Carnage."  It's a Great Country.  Here it is, from our photo album of places we have seen in the past five years on our road trips:
