I caught her testimony live yesterday. I cried.

Remember her name: Aliya Rahman

Her testimony is everything and it deserves to be heard, by everyone. Decide for yourself.

It’s powerful. It’s gut-wrenching. And no one should have to survive what she did.

ICE MUST GO‼️

Graphic Warning for the video that "MSW" shared. It captures the whole incident. All I can say is that a human being was executed on the street in Minneapolis.

If the video is blocked, you can change your settings to allow all of the content categories they list.

Gangland murder? Sure looks that way. There should be an investigation.

No Kings Roanoke has been an impressive, peaceful gathering of people who love our country. I estimate about 4000-5000 people showed up. Great speakers, drum circle, inflatables, road work, fellowship. #Indivisible #NoKings #Roanoke

New Greenway stretch through SW Salem, VA. It was quite the engineering achievement.

Along the Roanoke Valley Greenway in Salem, VA. I’ve always wanted to catch a crisp photo from this bend.

The morning mist on the Roanoke Valley Greenway in Salem, VA is special.

Some recent early Fall photos from my #Roanoke #Virginia walks.

I thought that bicycles on a road have to follow the same rules as automobiles. For example, in the video shown, it would be illegal for a car to pass a slower vehicle when there is only one lane. If the cyclist was in a designated bike lane, that would be different. I think.

Heather’s mother, Susan, taught elementary school with me back in the ‘90s. Many teachers at our school had kids, and the kids would hang out before and after school. Heather was one of those “school rats”. She was a sweet kid who grew up to be a fabulous young adult before she was murdered.

Did they?

I hang out in my single car garage working on little projects like stringing colorful hot peppers for drying.

My protest sign “Ben Cline The Invisible Man”. My community holds a weekly rally below my Congressman’s Roanoke office on Mondays. We’ve been asking for a Town Hall meeting for 30 straight weeks.

Here’s my community below our large billboard across the street from Congressman Ben Cline’s Roanoke office.

I spent several days cat sitting at my friends’ house just SW of Roanoke. They live in the most beautiful rural setting in the world.

A few photos from late summer from in and around Roanoke, Virginia.

Visited Spain for first time. Spent half in Barcelona. Other half was in Gijón. Side trips from those bases.

Loved it all.

When? That’s the pressing question.
