"Nearly every person who gathered to honor Riley could share a story of somebody close to them who had been injured or killed in a crash. And nearly every person understood that the unlicensed, uninsured, illegally parked driver who 'doored' Riley could have easily done the same to any of us."

Happy Barak Obama Appreciation Day! June 14, 2026. I'll be celebrating by resisting!

I can't believe the 50th anniversary of my ride across the United States is coming up. I found my journal of the ride and here is the first page that was written while we were in Florence Oregon about to embark. #BikeCentennial #AdventureCycling #Cycling #TransAmericaTrail #TransAmerica

Florida Big Bend - Tallahassee NO Kings Tallahassee Historic Old Capitol Today March 28th from 3 to 5 PM! The Tallahassee event is just one of THREE THOUSAND events throughout the country. #NoKings #Tallahassee

Sick.

Yep, was me. 1976, wow!

Florida bear hunt passes unanimously. Of course it did. 😪

Angus: The prime minister presents a vision of saying, “I’m reasonable. We’re going to work with this guy.” Then Trump pulls this stunt. What’s now very clear is that you can’t sit down and negotiate in good faith with a gangster regime. You just can’t trust Trump.

Despite warnings from the law enforcement not to attend today’s No Kings rally after this mornings shooting of Minnesota lawmakers with the killer on the lose, the No Kings Rally is happening at the Minnesota State Capitol in St. Paul.

Yumm! Nothing like the fragrance of Zucchini Bread fresh from the oven, made from zucchini fresh from the garden!

"The last offer from Senate budget writers shows the Chamber agreeing to the House position of no money for the Office of Hope Florida. And the latest PreK-12 Education Appropriations spreadsheet shows the Senate agreeing to the House position of offering no money for Hope Navigators." womp womp

Good for Senator Cory Booker! I watched him until midnight last night and awoke to see he's still going strong!

"Trump administration layoffs hit NOAA, agency that forecasts weather, hurricanes" www.npr.org/2025/02/27/n...

No problem. We can use ritual weather forecasting. Rain dances, prayers, etc. Onion calendar, Cabañuelas, Panchangam, Duski. Woodchucks, caterpillars, animal fur, and frequency of cricket chirps are reliable indicators. Hurricane prediction: If crows fly low, winds going to blow... Easy peasy! 🙂

Every Bluebird knows they are going to have a great day when their first thirst quenching drink of water is accompanied by an enthusiastic Cardinal's generous serenade.
