I am weaving to repair my favorite old vest

That is just amazing.

I think he should turn it down and join forces with Stephen Colbert and start a whole new show

Will they be arrested if they defy?

A beautiful day in the neighborhood

I had the incredible pleasure of teaching beadweaving to school kids through Artreach on The Road. 3rd through 12th grades.

The passion flower is beginning to bloom. I so love the way the bumbles fall asleep with their heads buried. Sometimes there are 5 or 6 on one flower.

This made my day!

This is my stinging nettle patch. I’m harvesting for fiber now. One of my favorite plants. Food, medicine, fibers and it grows like a weed!

Something I think we all must consider is that all of the dumpster antics are by design to keep us distracted while the Rance and other oligarchs barrel forth with their plans

That is the book I learned with.

I met prez. Jimmy Carter at the New Orleans jazz fest when his daughter bought something from me. I got to shake his hand and tell him how much I appreciated the work he did

I had the great pleasure of teaching beadwork to kids last week at kids college in Lewisburg wv. Ages 6 to 13. Look at the amazing things they created

It’s kind of a defamation of character for the rat

What we learned yesterday.

The Times They Are a-Changin'

Wow. California Sen. Alex Padilla is wrestled and detained by federal officers after showing up to DHS Sec. Kristi Noem's press conference in LA. (video from Bill Melugin of Fox News)

It has definitely been the year of the snake for me. 5 visits. I think it is the same snake.
