"The origin of all civil government, justly established, must be a voluntary compact, between the rulers and the ruled; and must be liable to such limitations, as are necessary for the security of the absolute rights of the latter; for what original title can any man or set of men have, to govern others, except their own consent?

To usurp dominion over a people, in their own despite, or to grasp at a more extensive power than they are willing to entrust, is to violate that law of nature, which gives every man a right to his personal liberty; and can, therefore, confer no obligation to obedience. "

Alexander Hamilton

Hiya trish! Doing good so far today. Will be about 10 degrees cooler than the peak a couple of days ago, but I am still watering my tomatoes like crazy! (Just came back inside after running up our water bill.) LOL!

How are you doing?

I'm doing good so far, too! No tomatoes, but lots of herbs and hot peppers. :)

Unfortunately, my cilantro doesn't seem to be doing well. It's flopping.

"A garden, you know, is a very usual refuge of a disappointed politician. Accordingly, I have purchased a few acres about nine miles from town, have built a house, and am cultivating a garden."

4th of July traditions:

"The famous Macy's fireworks display usually held over the East River in New York City has been televised nationwide on NBC since 1976. In 2009, the fireworks display was returned to the Hudson River for the first time since 2000 to commemorate the 400th anniversary of Henry Hudson's exploration of that river."

Our lawn has come to a screeching halt as far as any new growth, so now is the perfect time for me to do some repairs to my lawn mower. BBL.

Our lawn is 12-14 inches high, and full of weeds. It’s awful.

"It has been observed that a pure democracy if it were practicable would be the most perfect government. Experience has proved that no position is more false than this. The ancient democracies in which the people themselves deliberated never possessed one good feature of government. Their very character was tyranny; their figure deformity."

~Alexander Hamilton
