Summer Skittles

 

 Summer Skittles? 

Jelly Bellies are popular and hold their flavors like nobody’s business and they are yummy, gummy, and delicious, but they stick so much to their canisters, the wheels, and to each other, so I gotta change them out to either chiclets or skittles, maybe M&Ms. 

The Red Hots have much thicker glaze coatings, but only still stick occasionally, so will try those instead. 

Everybody loves Hot Tamales candies πŸ¬

πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ

 

 One of the most well-known patriotic songs in the USA was first actually written as a poem called, “Pikes Peak.” 

It was set to music and published as “America” for the Fourth of July 1895 edition of The Congregationalist. The poem continued to evolve for the next 16 years, and the version we know today was written in 1911. 

Oh, beautiful for spacious skies, 

For amber waves of grain, 

For purple mountain majesties

Above the fruited plain!

America! America! 

God shed his grace on thee, 

And crown thy good with brotherhood 

From sea to shining sea.

Oh, beautiful for pilgrim feet,

Whose stern, impassioned stress

A thoroughfare for freedom beat

Across the wilderness! 

America! America!

God mend thine every flaw,

Confirm thy soul in self-control, 

Thy liberty in law.

Oh, beautiful for heroes proved

In liberating strife, 

Who more than self their country loved, 

And mercy more than life!

America! America!

May God they gold refine,

Till all success be nobleness, 

And every gain divine.

Oh, beautiful for patriot dream

That sees beyond the years

Thine alabaster cities gleam, 

Undimmed by human tears!

America! America!

God shed his grace on thee, 

And crown thy good with brotherhood

From sea to shining sea. 

pikes peak

 >Too many trees are bad for u. 

=But the sun is scorching the blacktop and it’s actually melting in spots. 

>And that’s my problem how? 

=People are suffering in this heat! 

>That’s why air-conditioning was invented. 

=It’s not even August yet, the hottest month of the year! 

>Try throwing shade, maybe that will help. 

=Wait a sec, who is this….?

Compasses

 

  Compasses 

Why do some compasses work and others don’t? 

If it’s not a matter of expense? What could it be?   πŸ€”
