These are beautiful and so prolific. I didn’t get the reference until I read the ALT text. Thanks for sharing,

The joys of growing and picking our own lettuce every single day. Snow peas also picked today. These are growing in planters on the deck from $1.00 heirloom seed packs. Self-defense from the ever-rising prices at the grocery. 🌱 #TheOutpost

THIS is what is needed in this country, not book bans and library funding cuts.

I’m very disheartened by the shamelessness of Republicans in Tennessee, Florida, Texas, Missouri, and now THIS. Republicans know they can’t win with their ugly policies that benefit the super-wealthy and punish everyone else. I hope Beth Macy wins Cline’s seat.

For those still interested in tracking poverty measures and the complete failure of this wicked administration, 1st Quarter ‘26 numbers show a 13% increase in new families seeking assistance from our local food pantry ministry. Gas prices keep going up every single day - wait until 2nd Qtr.

Such a gorgeous pic. Thanks for sharing.

#Libraries Reason #422 why libraries are wonderful. This week for Earth Day, they had packets of wildflower seeds free for patrons at the circulation desk.

Dappled sunlight on one of the many containers on our deck. Fresh gem lettuce every day, coupled with scallions in another planter every day, snow peas to come. Doesn’t taste any better than that, and beats the daily increasing prices at the grocery. 🌱 #veg

What a beauty! Thanks for sharing.

Stealth planting to prevent the deer from finding and munching this lovely Purple Speedwell pollinator. Planted by the foundation and nestled between two yellow/green pine shrubs with sharp needles. The bees were happily buzzing on this in peace a few seconds later. 🌱

Pictures of hope and joy and FUN! Thank you for sharing this with us.

Scallions from planter on deck, sage from herb garden. Brown butter sage chicken and Korean pancakes with scallions on the menu for dinner. 🌱

Can’t see any errors in this statement. Ge is a brave man in this time of tyrants. Thanks for sharing.

What a great way to start a Monday. I’m still laughing. Thanks for this. Coupled with Hungary results, praying the widespread right-wing fever of hate is finally starting to break.

And everybody who wants the U.S. back from the gangsters yells AMEN!

Look at the glow of these leaves. Beautiful! Thank you for sharing.

Watch this thread below to see unbelievable footage. Thanks for sharing.

Love this idea! Mini-greenhouse from recycled material.

A tale of resistance. Bluebells planted in two separate locations. Location on right says “No way deer, you won’t keep me down. I’m fighting back.” May we all be as resilient as nature. 🌱

Encouraging. The angry is multiplying.

Beautiful day today. Lots of signs about kindness and loving your neighbors.

This bearded iris beauty is really early this year. Climate change impacts continue…🌱

Simple pleasures. We are growing as many vegetables as we can in containers this year (not only to thwart high food prices and the voracious deer, but it’s also good for body, mind, and spirit). First batch of spring onions thriving. 🌱

Look at this beautiful deep purple. Thanks for sharing.

Good morning, Bluesky. A pastel sunrise today to banish the darkness.

Timeline cleanse. Ixora🌱 #Travel - St. Kitts, January 2026

Sidney Crosby came to Pittsburgh at a young age and never disappoints. That’s just one of the reasons we rooted for Canada. 🇨🇦

#MosaicMonday #Travel - January 2026 Spotted along beachfront walkway in Barbados.

THIS is how it’s done. Such an embarrassment from the White House - nothing new there.

For those keeping track of poverty measures and in direct contradiction to those saying the economy is great because of the stock market and “inflation isn’t bad”, our local food pantry ministry provided over 200,000 meals in 2025, a 12% increase from 2024. Not so great for people in need…

Some joy today to share. Also, who doesn’t love this dog’s name?

How is this not obvious to everyone with a functioning brain?

Just returned from a trip to Puerto Rico. Seems appropriate to share after watching the unifying performance by #BadBunny at the Super Bowl. Mosaic on walkway to Old San Juan and colorful street with cobblestones in Old San Juan. Now, more than ever, #Travel - IF and while you can. January 2026

Stubborn tree roots in San Juan, Puerto Rico. #Travel - 2026

Spotted in San Juan, Puerto Rico - yesterday. Now more than ever, #Travel if and while you can. Narrator: we didn’t write this, but don’t disagree with the sentiment. It’s the sign of our times.

#AlphabetChallenge #WeekCforCloseup #Travel - Stratford-upon-Avon, England -September 2023. This is a re-post from something I shared on Post. This flower is perfection.

Don’t we all need some good news after the deluge of horrific news this month? This is it. Thanks for sharing this very positive news, @pestilence4all.bsky.social 5-years of follow-up data are a big deal. Phase 3 studies already underway for multiple cancer types. This translates to HOPE.

Excellent start, Governor Spanberger. Thank you. The eye of Sauron is now fixed on Virginia. Retribution is his middle name.

History repeats, doesn’t it? To people of faith, if your religious leaders are STILL silent about everything happening here in the U.S., maybe it’s time to find a different community of faith that is not afraid to call out injustice and hate and focuses on those in need. We did exactly that.

Looks like the sky is angry. Another beautiful January sunset.

Greenland makes a wise choice. Can we choose Denmark as well?

#AlphabetChallenge #WeekBforBooks #Travel, London 2023 There are plenty of Sherlock Holmes references in London, England.

Walking the talk…this is what is needed from Christian leaders. Thank you for sharing.

Now this is a fun stat for soccer fans.

Sounds like a good platform to me.

#AlphabetChallenge #WeekAforAbstract Lighting fixture in a hotel lobby in Lisbon, Portugal, October 2025. #Travel

Timeline cleanse - sunset in Sagres, Portugal - October 2025. Sagres was once thought to be located at “the end of the world” by early explorers. Now, more than ever, #Travel if and while you can.

The sky is putting on some beautiful shows thus far in 2026. Tonight’s sunset.

Moonlight tonight.
