Photo of a dragon fly in mid flight. Very fuzzy background.

In the days leading up to his confirmation, RFK Jr tried to moderate his long held opposition to vaccines.  Now with the measles outbreak in Texas, his leadership is being tested.  If the HHS secretary continues to refuse to recommend vaccinations @SenBillCassidy should call for his resignation.

autumn golden grasses at Sunken Meadow State Park A woman with her back to camera is, herself, photographing the view. Photo is altered to resemble a painting and has the following poem embedded:
a slight breeze
carries her away
last butterfly

Image of spent seeds on ny ironweed, a native plant. Text on image, a tanka, reads:

finding
the silver lining
on a blustery day
blowers and mowers stop
silence returns
