The wrangling of the Emotional Support Chicken has concluded. She has taught me patience, ingenuity, and the value of persistence. I love her and can't wait to gift to a friend who's going in for major surgery in a couple of weeks. Yarn was gifted me by a friend who snagged it at a yard sale. 💕🐥
Heard from activist friend at Lochiel AZ. She's posted up at the first 200+ year old cottonwood that will be destroyed. She has a Yaqui cottonwood drum & is drumming for hours. She tied my knitted prayer tie chain w 100s of prayers around the drum & tree. I feel the love & energy of the drum. 🌿💔🐆🌳
Time for a gift drop off to a friend whose dog has had diarrhea for a week. She needs a laugh. 🦮🤪
Lochiel AZ ceremony today at 4pm Arizona. A group of tribal youth, elders, artists & activists are gathering in the imperiled last grove of cottonwoods at the AZ-Mexico border. Join us if you are in the area! We are soliciting donations for gas $, gifts & food. givebutter.com/stop-destruc...
My niece is going through old photo albums. Can't remember looking this cool but I'll take it. 1988 at the Shawangunk Mtns near New Paltz NY. 💚🌄
Queen loves watermelon. 7 years ago in Tucson. Listen with sound on to hear the drops of juice hitting the ground. #goldenretriever 🦮🍉💚
Careful what you ask for I guess. Looks like the worst is over for now. ⛈️
Today we picked grape leaves for dolmades. It's a tradition from DH Greek family & it's a joy to do once a year. We'll be wrapping 175 dolmas over the 4th of July. 🍇🌿🇬🇷 PS I accidentally arted. 💚
Here's what you might enjoy at Whitewater Draw. A murmuration of yellow headed blackbirds!
At Road America for motorcycle races this weekend. Been coming up here 23 years. Weather is the most beautiful we can recall. Oh, & some very good dogs here too. Throwback to 2017 with Queen wearing a track bandana hoping for a bite of bratwurst. 🏍️🦮
Horicon Marsh in Wisconsin today. Would love to go for the dawn chorus sometime. It's way past time to do some paddling into the interior. 🦢💚
I have someone new to study! Plus the other great thinkers in my constellation. Thank you!
Meh. My MAGA father gives me $100 gift cards to Duluth Trading every Xmas. I'm not keen on them & their quality has declined in recent years. Went to their flagship store in Mt Horeb WI and figured I'd try an expired Moon Cheese. Meh, I say meh.
Top headline on NYT to wake up to. Guess the editors think this is important, as do I. Whatever it takes to break their criminal courage block.
The #BirdOfTheDay theme today is #Grassland any bird pictured with grass.
Potter wasp and possibly an Eristalis sp on Death Camas in Flathead National Forest June 5 2024. Originally combined into one obs on iNat, now split into 2. There are obvious differences. 🐝🌸🪰 www.inaturalist.org/observations... www.inaturalist.org/observations...
Yummy merino yarn cakes with delicious colorways must surely qualify, right?
