Here's a little distraction from these anxious times.

Here's a little distraction from our current anxious lives.

May you live in interesting times... This is purported to be a Chinese curse. Well we are dealing with what has now been raised to the level of a pandemic situation that originated in China. The 7 Chinese doctors that discovered it at the end of last year and came forward were arrested by the Chinese authorities, forced to apologize and then punished. Yet China is being praised for their handling of the situation. The numbers, infected/deaths, are set to rise exponentially o...n a global basis, are affecting all of us. US equity markets are down over 16% so retirement accounts are taking a major hit. The 10-Year US Treasury yield went to 0.32% last night hurting those who bought treasuries for a safe return. And now we have a spat between Saudia Arabia and Russia over production levels knocking down the price of crude oil by over 34% to under $30/barrel. I wish that could have happened at the beginning of the winter and not at the end. Global supply chains are being disrupted causing major concerns and hoarding in many area. US health authorities are saying a vaccine is at least a year and half away. This too shall pass but in the meantime there will be a lot of pain to go around. Buckle in for interesting times.

Lamb -It's whats for dinner! Plenty available for you!

Yea! Snow is melting, fields are appearing again, a little mushy but not bad. However, I think our dogs much prefer lots of the white stuff.
