You know what’s special about Winsome’s father, your grandparents, my grandparents?

You nailed it. My grandparents arrived quite poor. Oma worked cleaning tenements in Brooklyn. Within seven years, my Opa had built his own house in Westchester County and they moved up to Thornwood.

It’s such a common story from that era, isn’t it? Too bad we’ve lost so much of that and have people storming the southern border just thinking they can waltz right in — and the uniparty making it all happen.
