Here are two newspapers, one from Poland, the other from the Czech Republic.
Too bad an American has to read the foreign press to get the facts. Of course, what remains of the so-called “press” in the United States is reminiscent of Pravda circa 1962. Thus, to demand any semblance of honesty is to bark up an empty tree.
To my friends in Poland, including former professors, those I’ve met in the course of book events, and others, I am deeply saddened to see your nation once again in peril. Of course, you do not have to hear this from me. You’ve known it for months now. The difference is that the rest of the world knows it, too. I fear your sovereignty will once again be trampled, your populace abused, your progress and hard work stolen. You’ve been bargained away, traded like yard sale leftovers in exchange for precious little.
Does anyone remember 1938… 1939… 1945?
Trust no one, especially allies bearing promises.
Many people who visit Aruba comment on the beautiful sunsets. There have been some truly spectacular ones the last couple of weeks. Here’s one my wife snapped a few evenings ago.
We were just driving along and looked over and there it was, the brilliant hues flashing across the sky. Nice.
Bon dia.
There’s a new home being built in San Fuego, Aruba. The home will feature a large swimming pool with a nice view out over the island. Here’s a photo of the current status of construction.
San Fuego is centrally located on the island. It’s also an elevated area. From the second story of homes here, you can see the Caribbean sea to the west. To the east, there is the Arikok National Park. The builder tells me there will be a covered pavilion at the end of the pool to offer some shade. In the foreground is the porch that surrounds the house.
There are a number of pleasant areas to build a new home or buy an existing one here in Aruba. If you’re looking for a vacation home or another place to hang your hat, think about one here.
Bon dia.
