Well well well, it’s been a long time! Distress Greetings to all my friends, I have been busy reconstructing my site RVJart.com and wanted to welcome you back!

This work is ongoing, so please let me know if something doesn’t work. How do…
Ditch the Plastic
DITCH THE PLASTIC
A resolution of mine this year is to try to diminish the amount of plastic that I use. I mean one time use plastic. For example, some towns in Vermont have banned the use of plastic shopping bags. It is being considered as a State wide ban. I have found that with only a minor adjustment of remembering to keep a couple of reusable canvas bags in the trunk of the car, it is no…

Just substitute “fugitive” for “immigrant”….
What a situation, now, for a patriotic senator, that had been all the week before spurring up the legislature of his native State to pass more stringent resolutions against escaping fugitives, their harbourers and abettors!
Our good senator in his native State had not been exceeded by any of his brethren at Washington, in the sort of eloquence which…

Keeping Vermont Safer
Dear Roger,
Earlier today, Governor Phil Scott signed into law a trio of bills that will help keep Vermont safer. We are very grateful to the Governor and to the legislative leaders who recognized the risk that gun violence poses to Vermont and championed these bills.

We are also grateful to you and all of our supporters who have shown up…

Time for Gratitude
When someone asks you the time do you glance at your wrist or reach for your pocket? For all of my adult life I have worn a watch. Mostly it has been the same watch, a 1982 Accutron Quartz. In the 1960’s Bulova began making Accutron watches. They contained a small tuning fork that created a fixed frequency that regulated the time. They were the most accurate watches on the planet… and in space,…

Truth
“Truth is not only violated by falsehood; it may be equally outraged by silence.”
-Henri Frederic Amiel, philosopher and writer (27 Sep 1821-1881)
I was asked to swear an oath at a public hearing last week. I declined and pointed out that Vermont law includes affirmation in legal proceedings where testimony is given. The chairperson acquiesced to my demand.
Not swearing oaths to be truthful is…

Happy Birthday Dad
My Father would have been 91 years old today. He passed a few years back and my Mother gave me his ring. It is ironic, being that I am a Quaker, that this tiger eye ring features a Roman soldier. These rings were popular back in the 1940s. My Father was a soldier. He served in the Marines, Navy and Army through World War II and after.
For me this ring signifies sacrifice. He was willing to put…

What’s wrong with this picture?
It was 11:00pm, lightly snowing and I was driving home. On a long deserted stretch of route 30 in the West River valley I drove past a Vermont state trooper’s car parked off of the shoulder of the oncoming lane.
My reaction to seeing the car was to immediately take my foot off of the gas, but I was already doing 5 mph below the speed limit, so I drove on. It was…
