Dejected. Disappointed. Demoralized. Desolated. That's pretty much how we felt after November 8; and still feel. On November 14th we traveled to Washington, DC, to stay in Rachel and Will's house, pet-sitting, while they were with the Sehestedts for a Thanksgiving holiday in Maui.

Outside the Newseum...with Trump's ongoing

I should think that DC is in such gloom these days with billionaire know-nothings filling not only the White House, but all of the cabinet positions that should have gone to talented, intelligent people.
