I'm having problem where I have too much space on the right and bottom for my site, it's making scroll bars that let you scroll to far.
the problem with the scroll right is in the "grid_container_ci" div
and for bottom scrolling is the "grid_container_footer" div.
I have tried using margin's to get rid of it, but not successful. It seems like the problem came after I added the "grid_container_ci" div. but even now when I comment out my "grid_container_ci" div, I still have problem with "grid_container_footer".

Thanks for all your input, I don't like just copying and pasting your code into mine as I need to learn how to alter my code to be correct, but based off of all your guys information there was something clearly wrong with my css, so I deleted my .grid_container_ci" css coding and commented out my html for it was well, was able to get the footer fixed when I did that. after I fixed the footer, I added back my html for the "grid_container_ci" and then started stlying again, I wasn't getting the results I wanted, and tried changing my html for the "grid_container_ci" into different divs for the text and image, then used "display-grid" in css to get the result I was looking for, and I got it. Below is my new code if anyone is curious. Thanks for the input!

The best way to achieve that layout would be to use CSS grid. I am using a grid layout and then nested divs for each section.

I have the following issue involving the placement of text around an image using CSS and HTML. The way I've written it works as long as the text doesn't pass the image. The problem is that as soon as it "overflows" beyond the bottom of the image, it justifies all the way left and looks really sloppy.
How can I keep the text below the bottom of the image aligned with the previous text?
Note: I had to remove my original photo to prevent sharing personal information, and the replacement photo ended up being a little bit taller, so I had to copy and paste the text a few times to make it long enough to show what I'm talking about.
Here's the jsfiddle example including all my code: https://jsfiddle.net/dLa9jgcm/2/

<div>Parapsychologists Peter Venkman, Raymond Stantz, and Egon Spengler were scientists working for Columbia University. After being called to the New York Public Library to investigate the recent paranormal activity, they encounterd a full-fledged ghost
but she frightend them away. They lost their jobs at the university after that, so the trio established the Ghostbusters, a paranormal investigation and elimination service. They developed high-tech equipment to capture ghosts and they opened
their business in a disused, run-down firehouse. In their first outing, Egon warns them never to cross the energy streams of their proton pack weapons, as this could cause a catastrophic explosion, and they captured their first ghost, Slimer,
depositing it in a specially built containment unit in the firehouse basement. As the paranormal activity increased in New York City, they hired a fourth member, Winston Zeddemore, to cope with demand.</div>
<div>The Ghostbusters were then called by cellist Dana Barrett, whose apartment was haunted by a demonic spirit, Zuul, a demigod worshipped as a servant to Gozer the Gozerian, a shape-shifting god of destruction and chaos. As the Ghostbusters investigated,
Dana was possessed by Zuul, which declared itself the "Gatekeeper", and Louis was also possessed by a similar demon, Vinz Clortho, the "Keymaster". Both demons speaked of the coming of the destructive Gozer and the release of the imprisoned ghosts.
The Ghostbusters took steps to keep the two apart.</div>
Walter Peck, a lawyer representing the Environmental Protection Agency, had the Ghostbusters arrested for operating as unlicensed waste handlers and he orderd their ghost containment system deactivated, causing the explosion that released the ghosts and
Louis/Vinz. The ghosts wreaked havoc throughout the city while Louis/Vinz advanced toward Dana/Zuul's apartment. After consulting blueprints of Dana's apartment building, the Ghostbusters learned that mad doctor and cult leader Ivo Shandor, declared
humanity too sick to deserve existing after World War I, designed the building as a gateway to summon Gozer and bring about the end of the world.
<div>The Ghostbusters were released from custody to combat the supernatural crisis. On the apartment building roof, Zuul and Vinz opened the gate between dimensions and they transformed into supernatural hellhounds. Gozer, in the form of a woman, is
subdued by the team, disappearing entirely, as her voice echoes that the "destructor" will follow, taking a form chosen by the team; Ray inadvertently recalls a beloved corporate mascot from his childhood "something that could never, ever possibly
destroy us" and the destructor arrived in the form of a giant Stay Puft Marshmallow Man that attacked the city. The Ghostbusters crossed their proton pack energy streams and fire them at Gozer's portal; the explosion closed the gate, destroys
Stay Puft/Gozer, and frees Dana and Louis. The Ghostbusters were welcomed on the street as heroes. After these events we changed our company name to Bust A Ghost and we continued to work catching ghosts, and we still are today. Also these events
were made in a documentry about us ca

You are having this issue because you assigned width: 60% to each div and that makes more than 100% for both together. You have to make them 50% and instead of display:inline-block, make them float:left followed with a clear:both. Try this code.
<div class="article">

<div class="article">

.article {
float:left;
width: 50%;
height: 100px;
overflow: hidden;
}
img {

height: 50%;

Use
.article{
width: 50%;
float: left;
}
For instance, you can't have white spaces in image source (src="Our Gadgets.jpg"). User slash or underline instead.

I have tried border attributes but it seems not working properly, and I would like the vertical lines to be attached to the horizontal lines and the content of the boxes be equally disposed like showed in the screenshot from Balenciaga website.

Instead of relying on display: inline-block, which causes items to be aligned by the base line, you can use CSS flexbox instead. The advantage of using flexbox is that each item will be stretched to its parent container's height (no more ugly equal height hacks), and it is just extremely easy to implement:
.content {
padding-left: 12px;
padding-right: 12px;
display: flex; // This is what you really need
}
// This is just to give the individual columns sufficient space at the top and bottom
.content > div {
padding-top: 12px;
padding-bottom: 12px;
}
And simply remove all the min-height and display: inline-block from the direct descendants of the <div class="content"> element, and you are good to go.

<p>The 1881 world tour of King Kalākaua of the Kingdom of Hawaii was his attempt to save the Hawaiian culture and population from extinction through the importation of a labor force from Asia-Pacific nations. His efforts brought the small island nation to the attention of world leaders, but sparked rumors that the kingdom was for sale. In Hawaii there were critics who believed the labor negotiations were just his excuse to see the world. The 281-day trip gave him the distinction of being the first monarch to circumnavigate the globe, just as his 1874 travels had made him the first reigning monarch to visit America and the first honoree of a state dinner at the White House.
Kalākaua met with heads of state in Asia, the Mideast and Europe, to encourage an influx of sugar plantation labor in family groups, as well as unmarried women as potential brides for Hawaii's existing contract laborers. While in Asia, he tried to forestall American ambitions by offering a plan to Emperor Meiji for putting Hawaii under the protection of the Empire of Japan with an arranged marriage between his niece Kaiulani and a Japanese prince. On his visit to Portugal, he negotiated a treaty of friendship and commerce with Hawaii that would provide a legal framework for the emigration of Portuguese laborers to Hawaii. The King had an audience in Rome with Pope Leo XIII and met with many of the crowned heads of Europe. Britain's Queen Victoria and the splendor of her royal life impressed him more than any other monarchy; having been greatly affected by the ornate trappings of European sovereigns, he would soon have Hawaii's monarchy mirror that grandeur.
The King traveled with no security guards; only a small group of personal friends made the journey with him. Except for land transportation in cities, and two loaned ships in China and the US, his modes of transportation were seldom reserved exclusively for him. He shared regularly scheduled steamships and rail transport with fare-paying passengers. On the Red Sea, he played cards and danced with other passengers. Like other tourists, he visited the white elephants of Siam, the Giza pyramid complex in Egypt, tourist sites in India, and museums in Europe. Along the way, he exceeded his original budget, went shopping anyway, and sent letters back home.
President James A. Garfield died four days before they arrived back in the United States, and Kalākaua paid a courtesy call to newly inaugurated President Chester A. Arthur at the White House in Washington, D.C. There were no public or private appearances for the King in New York, only a day at Coney Island. Before leaving the eastern US, the King met with Thomas Edison to have a demonstration of electric lights, and visited Virginia's Fort Monroe. He toured Hampton Normal and Agricultural School, and shopped for horses in Kentucky. The royal party boarded a train to California, where they were house guests of Claus Spreckels at his estate in Aptos (near Santa Cruz), and had a few days of seeing the sights in the area before sailing back to Hawaii. Kalākaua was successful in jump-starting new immigration, with the first transplants arriving in Hawaii less than a year later. In the years that followed, he began emulating the lifestyles of European royalty with expensive furnishings in Iolani Palace, a public coronation of himself, and a two-week public celebration of his birthday.</p>

Here is a JSFiddle of the whole thing: https://jsfiddle.net/d7vdkp4c/
As you can see, what I have right now does indeed cause the div to take up 100% of the height - of what's visible. The wrapper div collapses to be equal to what I believe is known as the "viewport height" (I am new to web development; trying to teach myself). This means that if I scroll down, the bar does not continue.
I've been researching this a ton on Google, and many of the answers I've read have been here on StackOverflow, but none of them seem to account for this problem - making that 100% height stretch all the way to the bottom of the entire webpage, not just the visible screen.
Any help with this is greatly appreciated. While I will be very grateful for any answer, I would, since I am new to this, really appreciate it if any solutions could be kept simple - or if that is not possible, that they could be either explained in detail, or some external resource included which will explain in detail. I want to learn!
Thank you!
Since .wrapper wraps all of your content, add position: relative; padding-left: 10%, then position the .sidebar with position: absolute; top: 0; bottom: 0; left: 0; width: 10%; so it will stretch from the top to bottom of .wrapper

<p>The 1881 world tour of King Kalākaua of the Kingdom of Hawaii was his attempt to save the Hawaiian culture and population from extinction through the importation of a labor force from Asia-Pacific nations. His efforts brought the small island nation
to the attention of world leaders, but sparked rumors that the kingdom was for sale. In Hawaii there were critics who believed the labor negotiations were just his excuse to see the world. The 281-day trip gave him the distinction of being the first
monarch to circumnavigate the globe, just as his 1874 travels had made him the first reigning monarch to visit America and the first honoree of a state dinner at the White House. Kalākaua met with heads of state in Asia, the Mideast and Europe,
to encourage an influx of sugar plantation labor in family groups, as well as unmarried women as potential brides for Hawaii's existing contract laborers. While in Asia, he tried to forestall American ambitions by offering a plan to Emperor Meiji
for putting Hawaii under the protection of the Empire of Japan with an arranged marriage between his niece Kaiulani and a Japanese prince. On his visit to Portugal, he negotiated a treaty of friendship and commerce with Hawaii that would provide
a legal framework for the emigration of Portuguese laborers to Hawaii. The King had an audience in Rome with Pope Leo XIII and met with many of the crowned heads of Europe. Britain's Queen Victoria and the splendor of her royal life impressed him
more than any other monarchy; having been greatly affected by the ornate trappings of European sovereigns, he would soon have Hawaii's monarchy mirror that grandeur. The King traveled with no security guards; only a small group of personal friends
made the journey with him. Except for land transportation in cities, and two loaned ships in China and the US, his modes of transportation were seldom reserved exclusively for him. He shared regularly scheduled steamships and rail transport with
fare-paying passengers. On the Red Sea, he played cards and danced with other passengers. Like other tourists, he visited the white elephants of Siam, the Giza pyramid complex in Egypt, tourist sites in India, and museums in Europe. Along the way,
he exceeded his original budget, went shopping anyway, and sent letters back home. President James A. Garfield died four days before they arrived back in the United States, and Kalākaua paid a courtesy call to newly inaugurated President Chester
A. Arthur at the White House in Washington, D.C. There were no public or private appearances for the King in New York, only a day at Coney Island. Before leaving the eastern US, the King met with Thomas Edison to have a demonstration of electric
lights, and visited Virginia's Fort Monroe. He toured Hampton Normal and Agricultural School, and shopped for horses in Kentucky. The royal party boarded a train to California, where they were house guests of Claus Spreckels at his estate in Aptos
(near Santa Cruz), and had a few days of seeing the sights in the area before sailing back to Hawaii. Kalākaua was successful in jump-starting new immigration, with the first transplants arriving in Hawaii less than a year later. In the years that
followed, he began emulating the lifestyles of European royalty with expensive furnishings in Iolani Palace, a public coronation of himself, and a two-week public celebration of his birthday.</p>
