Re: Trump's ballroom. Did you see this from substack? Great reporting and sounds completely logical. But SCARY! Might make a good story and guest?

Trump Isn’t Building a Ballroom
When Trump announced a $300 million ballroom at the White House, something went off in my brain.

A Pipevine caterpillar on a tan rocky ground. The caterpillar is a dark brown with equally spaced tiny orange spikes running down both sides of its body. A bight, iridescent green, Pipevine butterfly chrysalis against a white/tanish wall.

Morning #BlueSky. Something for #Sunday #Stunday! A simple #stilllife (with shadows).

Sitting on a wooden grained table is a vase, half filled with water. In this glass are 3 tulips. One is all pale red with a green stem, another is a mixture of red and white petals, and the third is mostly white with red streaks. In contrast are 2 bright yellow columbine flowers. The flowers show shadows against a gray wall.

Morning #BlueSky. Saturday? Then it’s #BlueSkyArtShow. Maybe a different take on today's theme of #shiny. Here we have an eye's shiny reflection.

Close up of an Australian Shepherd's eye. The iris is pale gray/blue with a little darker, same-colored corona around a black pupil. In the center of the pupil and into a part of the iris are square reflections of something. Gray, black and tan stiff hairs surround the eye.

Morning #BlueSky. Just your basic confluence of #red with a bit of delicate #white thrown in. Have a great day.

Close-up of a bunch of various colored red bougainvillea petals, with a few tiny white centers. Reflected off the top is sunshine, leaving the lower part of the picture in shadow.

It’s #RoseWednesday, #BlueSky! To me, because of the shadows, this looks like a plastic #rose or a painting. But it’s real!

A pale salmon colored rose on its side and facing the camera. The interior is still tight but the outer petals have started opening up. There are a couple dark green leaves in the background.

Sunday #Stunday! Morning #BlueSky. I walked by this and about 10' later it registered on my brain. I had to go back and take the pic.

A picture of a yellowish/greenish brush grass plant going to seed. It has one long leaf and is against a gray/white, very rough background of textured cement. The grass casts its shadow below and to the right.
