Food is great, but money can buy food in January when donations are low but days are cold. Sign up to volunteer when the generous donor unannounced sends a truck load of health but perishable food.

If you read this and are thinking about your local foodbank, money is a much better donation than food. The foodbank needs shelves, refrigeration, electricity for storing food. The foodbank needs to repair the van to drive loads of food to locations. Money doesn't spoil and is more flexible

I hate listening, but it is so ludicrous that I can't expect anyone to believe me unless I can say, yes I actually heard Noem say this. Potemkin village surrounding him is more plausible every day. πŸ™

The Center today moved to end a livestock industry lawsuit that'd tried unsuccessfully to stop the Forest Service from removing feral cows from the Gila Wilderness.

With the removal complete and cows gone, endangered species habitat along the Gila River is recovering beautifully.

This morning. Delighted to see blue sky for the start of a busy day. Painting, however, did not get done

No, I meant the various videos/photos I saw about the concert. They looked like they took such joy in the music

That helped! Those were what I was thinking of, but there was way too much red. Maybe the red breasted sapsucker. The sun caught the red just right

Hearing chirping, looked outside the window in time to see one of the little birds who hops down the tree trunk. Can't remember the name

The Bisti Badlands feature a variety of unique rock formations, such as hoodoos and cracked eggs, created by millions of years of erosion on layered sandstone, shale, mudstone, and coal. The landscape was once a swamp in an inland sea during the late Cretaceous period.
