My neighbors hiked it today (or maybe it’s tomorrow). It’s such a fantastic hike. I wish I was there now!

Hi Karen! What time on Thursday are you checking out of Voyageurs? Are you headed towards Mpls? I’m busy on the 25th, we are headed to Mpls, too. But I might have a few hours on the 24th.

🚨 NEW: The Writers Guild of America is demanding an investigation into CBS’s firing of Stephen Colbert—calling out what could be a politically motivated takedown of one of late night’s sharpest voices.

Stand with truth. Stand with Colbert.
Retweet to show you’re not backing down.

We are going to be in Minneapolis on the 25th. What time are you done on the 24th?

As a child, Sesame Street. As a middle schooler, M*A*S*H*, because I knew nothing of what war was like. In my 20’s…Saving Private Ryan. 30’s Band of Brothers. 40’s I started watching the Discovery Channel & History Channel. Aerial America for Geography, & love David Attenborough’s wildlife shows!

Sent!

Great to see! Woohoo!

I’ve been very quiet myself.

But, I’m taking my annual trip with my son and we will be in West Yellowstone, all next week. Let me know if you get a chance to meet up. 🌸

😢 I hope you and your family are managing the best you can. I’m always thinking of you and hope you are well.

?? Are you leaving??

This is terrible news. There is only one outfitter in Grand Marais that will issue permits. Not sure about Ely. But, this is a huge obstacle in visiting the Boundary Waters.

Shoot! I liked it.

U2 on stage, behind a multicolored screen. You can only see their shadows.

Missing these lads! Could use a dose of their passion, wisdom, & humanity right now.

Do I have any #ParkChat friends who (1) live in CA and (2) were part of the DOGE federal work force reductions that might want to speak at an upcoming event with a large audience of decision makers? If so, reach out!

I agree!

I was wondering if it would remain closed. Biscuit Basin is one of my faves in the park! There’s a trail off the backside to Mystic Falls that we love. Now, we’ll use an alternative route south of the basin to hike to the falls. But, I know this route can close for frequent bear activity. #ParkChat

I’m so frustrated.

Ha! So true.

Yes, I did like that the roof nest gives the ability to leave all your bedding inside. But, either way, it’s quick set up. 👍

Sounds like perfection! #ParkChat

We looked at the hard cover Roof Nest. It’s pretty slick. I love how quick and easy it is. And a pretty large area to sleep! I still think it might be in our future. It would be an economical way to travel for a few months at a time after retirement. It would pay for itself quickly. #parkchat

It’s been quite a few years since we used it. I’m sure it has changed and been upgraded. I may try it again in Yellowstone and the surrounding area this summer. It’s definitely the way to go for remote areas! #parkchat

Amazing!

Beautiful!

Thank you so much @codingmarine.bsky.social. Fantastic job! #ParkChat

A book cover with lots of green trees and the phrase: Walking Toward Peace, with a subtitle of: Veterans Healing on America's Trails.

A12: #ParkChat Book Club is reading "Walking Toward Peace" by Cindy Ross. The book depicts 25 veterans with PTSD getting out in nature and finding hope and healing. Meeting 1 (first half): 4/15, Meeting 2 (second half): 5/20 at 5 PM Pacific. DM me for deets.

A11: basic first aide. But, I’d love to do a class geared toward wilderness first aide. #ParkChat

That is the only thing that has kept us from getting one, to be honest. It’s the biggest downfall. #ParkChat

It sure does! I could just jump into that photo! #ParkChat

Oh!! How do you like your rooftop tent? We are thinking of getting one. #ParkChat
