finally!!!

You don't have to be watching the news to know.

Truckers.

Cabbies.

Cars.

Even busses.

They spontaneously erupt in loud honking and beeping.



Bells start clanging.

People shouting, and clapping in the streets.

It reminds me of the 7pm cheering that went on for months here.

Yes, finally. Our four-year nightmare is over. 

Biden and Harris have won.

I take a short three-block walk.

There is literally dancing in the streets.

Cheering at corners.


Drinking in celebration.



You can see the smiles underneath the masks.

I'm assuming that this guy is happy too.


It's a beautiful day in the neighborhood.

In the city.

In this great country.

The people have spoken. America, I love you.

  1. We are so happy today. Now the world may be okay for our kids and grandkids. We need to address climate change and social injustice immediately.

  2. Only in Phoenix, Arizona are there people standing outside where the count is going on carrying guns and waving Trump flags. They don’t seem to understand the election is over. They think the results are fake because more people came out for Trump’s rallies than Biden’s. Oy!
