Happened upon this scene a day after heavy rain. Perfect for #WaterfallWednesday

I’m excited to be getting back to the time of year where there is some drama in the skies!

A watercolor painting of a pink purple and lightly blue flower. Its pedals are closed up on upon one another and curled over.

This one almost won, y'all.

A three-tiered waterfall descends a mossy gorge. The highest level is a slide, the middle is a plunge, and the lowest is a small drop pinched between some rocks. The surrounding forest is filled with light green spring leaves.

Here’s another shot from Sunday’s waterfall hike. I first visited this location last January and it looked quite different covered with snow and ice. I’ll put a photo of that in the comments for comparison.

US pushes nations facing tariffs to approve Musk’s Starlink. Wow the corruption. An internal State Department memo lays it bare:“As the government of Lesotho negotiates a trade deal with the United States, it hopes that licensing Starlink demonstrates goodwill and intent to welcome U.S. businesses.”

Goodnight, Seattle. 💜💙

Walz: We don’t need to run government like a business, because we’re not in the profit-making business. We’re in the business of improving lives and looking toward the future.

And second, this guy has a proven track record of being an absolute failure.

Just about managed to get a photo of this deer in the buttercups a minute or so ago.

I think we could all use some loving kindness today.

May you be happy
May you be safe
May you be healthy
May you live with ease

💛💙

Thousands of layoffs to hit Interior, National Parks imminently Employees fear diminished capacity after RIFs are tacked on to existing mass exodus.

DOI was notified of competitive areas on April 15. They have to wait 30 days to take action (RIF)- that is next week.

This story validates the concern.

Of our 8000+ employees in January, 1500 have opted into voluntary departures. Another 1000 were removed from FWS and consolidated to DOI.

Musk staffer Conor Fennessy drafted a list targeting dozens of National Park Service grants for elimination including several aimed at protecting public lands from climate change.

Walz: When did government get to tell you how many dolls your child has? Government just big enough to fit in your bedroom, your womb, and apparently now in your toy chest.

True kindness shines through, and like-minded souls will always gravitate towards it. Keep shining, and the right connections will emerge.

This goat weathers the snow just fine. His winter coat is as deep as my fingers are long. #WAWX

Made dill pickle French bread pizza with a creamy garlic ranch sauce. 😋

A layered image showing fog at the top, black and pale pink scree slopes of a mountain side below, then an autumnal hillside with part of it glowing orange in a patch of sunlight, and part of it dark brown in the shadow at the bottom.

Giving a presentation on my photos from the Scottish Highlands at a photography club tomorrow night, so thought I'd post an old image from that wonderful area here.

These are the magnificent scree slopes spilling down the flanks of Beinn Eighe under a little fog, taken in November 2021.
