Yesterday they were shooting priests in the head with rubber bullets. Today they're arresting journalists. If you have anyone in your life who doesn't regularly follow the news and doesn't understand how bad things are and how bad they're about to get, you need to tell them right now. Time is short.

Dunk tank fun at a carnival leads to an attack on Jolie’s best friend. Then there's a murder to add to the mix. Uh Oh. The B&B has an annoying guest and (gulp) Aunt Madge vanishes after the fireworks #cozymystery #readbooks

Peaceful assembly isn’t an insurrection.

Storming the Capitol to hang your own vice-president and end democracy is.

Independent C-SPAN caller to Rep. Mark Alford: "You're taking credit for $50b that you just gave to the hospital industry. That's after you took away $150b. You don't take credit for just giving back a little bit of money after taking away so much. So quit lying. It just makes you look horrible."

A stranger says he’s related to Digger’s oldest friend. What does he really want? Century old papers hold clues to unexpected family ties.

I homeschooled my youngest son through graduation. That experience taught me how important it is to make learning our country's history fun.

I made a free unit study on the Boston Tea Party that you can share with your child.

Mountain Rails of Old. "The overall mystery, the extra special element that Uncle Benjamin discovered, and the romance kept me deeply involved. My favorite of this series so far.”
