Capital Policeman, Michael Fanone is speaking out after Trump pardoned the five criminals who nearly killed him Jan6. He is seeking protective orders for himself and his family. Fanone says he feels betrayed by his country….a feeling we can all share.

We live in a house that was built in 1920 as a sorority house. So it has a fire escape. A couple years ago we put a squirrel house on the second-floor landing. My favorite sound in the fall is a squirrel on the fire escape. Come March, we’ll have a baby (or two)!
