Peony in bloom, these are in an awkward spot in the yard, but I sure do enjoy seeing them in bloom.

Turns out people really resent an unelected weirdo running our Government & creating economic chaos. Hit Elmo where it really hurts: in his big, fat wallet. If we #TankTesla, It's Ex-X! (a/k/a Twitter) #WinWin

If you clip your fingernails at your office job, we can't be friends.

Worst. Episode. EVER.

Willow twigs wrapped and bent into the shape of a heart hanging on a wall. Dried flowers adorn the bottom half of the "wreath". Flower varieties include ping gomphrena, white babies breath, purple statice, pink and deep red strawflowers. Bottom center, point of the heart shape, is a yellow sunflower and pink amaranth. The heart is lopsided.

Loving the community I'm part of so much today. So many kind and talented people.

Two bald eagles sit on the top corner of a large office building. One is perched on a camera while the other is looking off into the blue sky.

I think we owe an apology to every storyteller whose fictional villains were poo-poo’d for being too obviously evil and yet getting away with their villainy in story because the masses didn’t want to hold them accountable.

I've been going to more meetups and contributing little things like bringing an airpot of tea. Planning a larger garden this year to grow more nutritious food to share. Attempting to organize more crafting gatherings. Checking in on folx and listening too.

The groups that insta has are definitely a draw for me still. You're right though, if we were all here. The difference in tech isn't as much of a big deal if people were here. There are many makers and small businesses too that seem extra resistant to coming here and starting over with followers.

You can lead a horse to water, but you can also do whatever this is apparently, whole neigh-borhood is doing it.

Two Australian cattle dogs stand on a forest trail amongst ferns, fallen leaves, and recently cut logs which previously blocked the trail.

There's a lot going on right now. Or talk of at least. What's keeping you grounded? Yesterday, I cleared out a trail along the fenceline with the help of these two.

String of lights run up a hill along a path under trees with trunks lit against darkness.

Come along

Forest walks sound great this time of year.
