It’s time to plant your garden By Rita R. Robison on May 20, 2021 at 2:52 AM
I’m working on planting my vegetable garden. The video below shows my raised-bed garden that I’ve spaded and I’m getting ready to amend the soil with compost and vegetable fertilizer.
I’m planting zucchini, cucumber, and strawberry seedlings. For seeds, I’m planting Swiss chard, carrots, kale, collards, green beans, spinach, and lettuce.
I love planting a garden every year and eating fantastic organic vegetables. I grow vegetables in the raised-bed garden you can see in the video below. I also grow vegetables in containers on my patio.

Coronavirus variants: What should you do about them? By Rita R. Robison on May 15, 2021 at 12:42 AM
On Thursday, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention gave strange advice. It said vaccinated people could go almost anywhere indoors or outdoors without a mask. The exceptions are airplanes, buses, and trains.
President Joe Biden and First Lady Jill Biden immediately took off their masks and were joyful about it. So did Governor Jay Inslee.
One commentator said he thought the new CDC mask recommendation was odd. He thought there should have been an interim period where vaccinated people were given more opportunities for mingling than the nonvaccinated.

Governor signs law banning open carry at state capitol and near demonstrations By Rita R. Robison on May 14, 2021 at 11:21 PM
At last, people will no longer be able to open carry guns at the state capitol.
In 2016, I went to the capital campus to take some photos. I saw a gun rally being held, so as a photojournalist, I took photos, which I have a right to do in a public place. No one challenged me, and fortunately, I didn’t get shot.
As I was leaving, I saw these two men, in the photo, who weren’t with the main group. I asked what they were doing. They said they were “guarding the perimeter.”
