Buffalo River between a sandy bank and a high, rocky cliff

When our family was stranded on the banks of the Buffalo River, a National Park Ranger rescued us. What if she hadn't been there to help? Today's message to Senator Ron Johnson: people will die if you sit back and allow these terminations to continue. #DoYourJob

A #FoundObjectArt challenge (for artists of all ages & levels of experience): Cut a pepper in half & photograph it on white paper. Add art! Either digitally or physically; if the latter, make sure you use non-toxic materials.
